Mount Baldy is at it again

MICHIGAN CITY â Mount Baldy has a voracious appetite. The dune that routinely swallows mature trees is now gobbling up the exit to the parking lot. The sand piled up on the exit road could be moved with a dump truck and a backhoe, but that would be a losing battle, Indiana Dunes National Park spokesman Bruce Rowe said. Instead, park officials are blocking off that road and turning the parking lot into a two-way lot. On Thursday, signs marking the parking lot as a one-way route remained in place, but the exit was blocked off. A sign along the north side of the exit road is nearly buried by the dune, with just the tops of the fence posts sticking out to mark the edge of the road. In one spot, only about 6 feet of pavement remain uncovered. The fence will be moved to the grassy area separating the dune and the rest of the parking lot, Rowe said.
