Something's been working on this tree. Pileated woodpecker?

Unfortunately, I have never seen a mammoth while hiking on the #IceAgeTrail. I may have hiked overtop of them without ever knowing it though.

Molash Creek marks the northern edge of the Point Beach Ridges State Natural Area (SNA #87). The SNA includes 11 alternating ridges and swales and is home to some rare and uncommon plant life.

The Swales nature trail is a short hike through the forest and includes educational signs about the Great Lakes' dune and swale (or ridge and swale) ecosystem.

The 1929 Grover/Smith Cabin is located along the Rawley Point Recreational Trail in the Point Beach State Forest. In front of the cabin is a small sign explaining when it was built and when it was restored (2003).

I wanna skip and not fall,
I wanna look at the horizon and not see a building standing tall"

It's me. While hiking in the #PointBeachStateForest. Unsure if this was on the #IceAgeTrail or Ridges trail, but it was somewhere near where they intersect.

As much as I love prairie, this forest is one of my favorite places in the state.

The night sky on the beach along the #PointBeachStateForest. You can see light pollution from three Michigan cities all the way across Lake Michigan. The cities producing this light are -from left to right- Manistee (57 miles away), Ludington (55 miles away), and Muskegon (90 miles away).
