Fall Color Update - October 28, 2011

The fall color in the Upper Peninsula is past peak. Still a great time, however, to take some hikes through the woods and a great time to see the waterfalls of the Upper Peninsula before the snow flies.

The fall color in Northern Lower Michigan is also past peak, however there is still a lot of color lingering in the woods in many regions. Fall color routes near Lake Michigan will have the best late fall color. The colors will vary great with bare trees next to trees that are mostly green mixed in with the bright orange and golds and reds of peak season.

Some color should remain in the woods through the rest of the month and there are plenty of fall festivities and harvest activities. Check the calendar for the latest events.

Stay tuned and we’ll keep you updated on the latest color in the north.
