      Jim- this is one part of an inland freshwater sea called "Lake"Michigan. This is the lower section near the Indiana border. Lake Michigan is 190 X 494 kilometers (300+mi). It runs north to south and so prevailing weather pushes against the eastern shore which builds dunes that rise to 400 ft at Sleeping Bear, about 200miles north of this site. It is a combination of glacial melt and rainwater--no salt water. It is a unique set of primary, secondary and tertiary dunes which are eroding according to the water levels . When the water levels are down the sand builds the primary dunes back up. Life's a beach.

      The rest of the waterfront is pretty much all concrete walls/rocks and been so as long as I can remember. When the water is rough from wind waves will crash into the walls so hard you will get soaked if your walking/biking on the path in the wrong spot, I don't see how a small sandy beach with no barriers would stand up to the wind/waves.

      Shorelines have also been doing just the opposite, for eons, or there wouldn’t be any “shoreline.” The point you need to understand is that at this point in Earth’s history, water levels are rising, storms are increasing in frequency and strength and polluting industries are tipping the balance to where Nature wins, Humanity loses. “Our changing planet” does not come with a written guarantee that “humans will survive.” If you think the key word is “eroding” and not “rising” go sell that distinction to islanders living in the South Pacific. Seawater is coming right up through their islands, slowly disappearing places where humanity has existed for a few thousand years. Same thing along all our shorelines: none are growing, all are shrinking. I doubt the owners of those Great Lake houses are consoling themselves with biblical pablum. Buyers don’t beware because they have been getting coverage from insurance companies so they just rebuild. But insurance companies aren’t writing those policies anymore and will soon stop paying any claims, sweeping the whole mess under “a work of God,” clause. What does “a 1,000 year flood plain” mean to somebody with an 80+ year lifespan?

    The wave energy reflected by the sea walls actually accelerates erosion. The role of the beach is to dissipate energy over distance. Creating any hard structure on the beach will concentrate that energy and increase erosion. BUT, people are attracted to live near dynamic environments because they are interesting, so they immediately begin to create structures that alter the environment to protect their physical investment without any understanding of the natural processes that they are trying to control. Energy is re-focused, the environment alters to adjust to the change in energy distribution, and a formerly beautiful landscape becomes an industrial horror-show money pit. Moral: You can’t own a beach.

    I lived along Lake Huron shoreline north of Lexington and the waves there washed out properties shorelines all the time. I watched a neighbor start rebuilding his break wall and half way through construction we got torrential rains and washed all his work out. We were constantly rebuilding up the beach around our stairway. Now I look on the resorts website they’ve completely rebuilt the stairs and beach area. I’d say it’s a 40 foot drop to the beach.
