Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore

Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore (soon to be National Park) is a wonderful place to be outdoors throughout the year. We go there frequently for birding and hiking etc...here are some of the images from many of those trips. Note that Indiana Dunes NL also includes some property that is away from the lake as well.
