WHEN GALES RAGE THIS DUNE PROTECTS: Dewey Hill stands at the end of Grand Haven's main street, serving as a buffer against the rush of western winds. The sands of the great dune are still active, as may be judged by the bareness of the crest shown above the roofs of the dock building at the right. Grand river is shown flowing along the eastern base of the dune, which constantly threatens to engulf it. A fishing village nestles in the lee of the dune.
