Indiana Dunes National Park anchors the northern reaches of this Porter County landscape, where the East Arm Little Calumet River winds through a complex of wetlands and dunes. The area is defined by the transition from the protected lakefront toward the industrial and residential growth of Chesterton and Portage. This survey captures the intricate drainage network south of the lake, including Peterson Ditch and Gustafson Ditch, which were essential for managing the low-lying terrain for development and agriculture.
