While out sailing, I saw the perfect icon for Lake Winnipesaukee's erosion problem. It is a three-foot diameter tree sitting on a small rock at water level. It couldn't have possibly grown from under the water's surface. This entire shoreline, including mine, is creeping into the lake!
Erosion is a fact, and the cause is Winnipesaukee's over-sized boats.

I have seen the same type of erosion near my home in areas where the shoreline vegetation suffers from wave erosion with none of the other causes of erosion present.
