Nordhouse Dunes Wilderness, Mason County, Michigan
Caption
This hemlock forest near the Lake Michigan shoreline is a dry coniferous forest. The trees are not large, so this is not a mature forest, but notice that the ground has few or no plants. The ground is mostly covered with pine needles and leaves.
