WHITE RIVER TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — A home west of Montague crashed off the top of a bluff on New Year’s Eve, a casualty of aggressive erosion that has been eating away at the Lake Michigan shoreline.

He said homeowner Tish Gancer did everything right and had been working with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes & Energy to try to prevent the disaster by installing riprap and a rock wall.
