A group of us went out to Nordhouse Dunes for a hike today. There were actually 9 of us. Two people didn't want to hike as far as some of us did, so they went out and back.
We did one of the longer loops which includes a fair amount of loose sand, coming near Lake Michigan.
I guess I like this tree. I've taken its picture before.
Hoary Puccoon is in bloom all over the dunes.
We came back to the parking by way of Nordhouse Lake, still with lots of water in it right now. It often dries up in August and Septemeber.
It was a lovely 67° when we started, but was 81 with 70% humidity by the time we finished. That was brutal. I haven't done much else today. But if I'm going to hike this fall, I have to get in shape.
Miles walked in 2026: 195.1
Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness- old road to Lake Michigan, north to Lake Michigan Rec Area, Arrowhead Trail, Nipissing Trail: 6.9 miles.
