DUNES AND LAKE COMBINE FOR BEAUTY: Highway US-2 west from St. Ignace, relocated along the northern shore of Lake Michigan and paved several years ago, has become a scenic drive of rare charm. Pines, cedars, pin cherries, and other trees have gained a foothold among the drifted sands. Woods, waters, beaches, curving shores, headlands, boats in the distance, all contribute to the appeal of constantly changing pictures.

Shoreline residents in the Manistee area and elsewhere on the Lake Michigan coast have watched the waters of the lake slowly inch upward for the past three years. Docks went first, then cottages tumbled into the water. Some have tried various erosion controls -- pilings, breakwalls, rockpiles -- but the inexorable advance of the waters prevailed, as the photos left, right, and below [this photo] clearly show. The pilings, right, have helped some, but the water is coming around the ends. A recent storm pulled the footings out from under a number of trees, below right [this photo].
