Grand Haven Pier in Winter

The snow is pretty but driving is getting more and more difficult. This must be a record year for snow and cold here on Lake Michigan.
Many people have gotten into trouble when walking on the pier.  The lake changes constantly and what might look like solid ice is not. Wind and changes in water currents cause the ice to be unstable.  This is the place where the Grand River flows into Lake Michigan.  Not safe to walk here.  Dogs do not understand ice and should not be allowed to run free in this area.
