Description
On the east end of Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and just west of Michigan City is Mount Baldy. To access the 123 foot wandering dune I go to a park that isn’t even shown on most maps. Just east of the Town of Pines, it’s entrance is officially named Rice Street. One can ascend the leeward side of the dune or take the more gentle trail that serpentines through dips and plateaus which take the hiker to a wooden walkway that ends at the crest of the lower west side of Mount Baldy. I got to the lovely venue late on a March afternoon when the sun was setting. Before me, bathed in a pinkish glow, was weathered dune grass and the pond-still waters of a generally turbulent Lake Michigan. I squeezed off but a couple of exposures before the sun disappeared beneath the distant dune.
