[quote=Kevin219][quote]just curious - why?
what extra challenges did this create?[/quote]
Historically the lake fluctuates 6ft. Right now its near its peak. 2012 it was near its record low. 2012 my beach in Ogden Dunes, IN had probably 150ft of sand between the dune grass and the water. Today most of that water is all the way up to the bluff. The widest part on our beach is like 30ft of sand. The same sad story exist on every inch of lake shore on all the great lakes. The problem is created by nothing other than large amounts of precipitation. I spent 10s of hours planning this trip scoping out prospective beach big enough for a beach cat. I would use Instagram and google images and sort by date to get the latest picture of what kind of sand people had. The big cities along the way all somehow seem to have plenty of beach still. also river outlets are an excellent source of sand. in 2012 however I could have just gone north without giving it any thought. the whole Michigan west coast is beach pretty much.[/quote]
