Nice day of paddling. Larry "Coach" has joined the mousketeers for this portion of the Lake Michigan section. They paddled 32 miles on down to Warrens Dune State Park. Caught a little bit of rain and wind but nothing to write home about.
-
Warren Dunes State Park is a 1,952 acre state park, full of sand dunes and tourists in the summer; and 4 intrepid paddlers (I like saying Intrepid) They boast a million visitors a year.
-
Some of the park's dunes include Mt. Fuller, Pikes Peak, and Mt. Edwards, while the best known is Tower Hill, the highest point in the park, standing 240 feet above the lake.
-
Sand boarding is a popular sport here and easy access to the dunes make it a popular location to practice the sport.
