Alden is a public boat ramp in Antrim County, Michigan, on Torch Lake. From here SeaStatus scores one water: Grand Traverse Bay south of a line Grand Traverse Light to Norwood MI.
The main water here is Grand Traverse Bay south of a line Grand Traverse Light to Norwood MI. Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 13.9 mi from this ramp.
Scores are decision support, not a substitute for your own judgment or the official NWS forecast. Read the limits.
