I came across this in my local paper today (and the link to the NPS statement) regarding the development of a designated 30 mile trail between Platte Bay & Good Harbor. I went further into the NPS site and found the original study about creating the trail. Ran into the hammocker's nemesis: wooden post stuck in ground with legal shelter/tent distances. I've run into that before in other NPS parks and not having trees within "legal" distance. The proposal is open to public comment, so I'll be adding my two cents. It will be interesting to see how it all turns out.
After 30 miles on the beach, you'd certainly have your fill of Lake Michigan vistas!
