While we were in Indiana we stayed in Indiana Dunes State Park. A small piece of Lake Michigan coast is in Indiana and it contains Indiana Dunes. There have been struggles over the years between big industry and ecologists regarding the use and preservation of this natural area. Today the beaches in Indiana Dunes state park and Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore are, for the most part, undeveloped but as you look in either direction up and down the beach you can see big industrial plants in both directions.
