Newberry Fall Color Photos – 2016
<>
Still early season fall color in the Eastern U.P. around Newberry... Peak color is about a week or two away.... #fallcolorphotos #newberrymichiganHappy Saturday everyone. We have been enjoying the unseasonably warm weather this week. We have just 2 more weeks of tours on the schedule and the Saturday trips are full. The Mondays and Wednesdays are still available. The warm weather has stalled the leaves turning and we are still about 40%. Miss Scarlet is occasionally making an appearance for the train as she did on Wednesday afternoon. We put food out even if we don't see her so she won't wander off and be hunted. That has drawn in a few wolves to the tracks. The collared one named Blondie along with a gray colored one and yesterday the crew saw a huge black one. Now if we could just get them to come out for the train. Have a fantastic weekend all and thanks for the over 10,000 likes!!!
Some early fall color in the Eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan... (Photos via Tahquamenon Falls Riverboat Tours & the Famous Toonerville Trolley) #fallcolorphotos #newberrymichiganHappy Labor Day weekend everyone. It's starting to look like fall on the river already this year. He water has been high most of the summer and the maples in the flood plane are already turning red. I love the color show each fall. The light frost we got yesterday also reminds us of whats to come. The train and riverboat tour is available through October 7th. This weekend is the last of the schedule for the 1 3/4 hour train ride. I will be posting color reports here and on our web site to keep you updated on the progress of the leaves turning. We hope you enjoy your weekend and hope to see some of you yet this fall.

Here is a fall color update. This was taken on Monday the 19th from the piolt house window. Overall we are 20% turned. Saturday September 24th and Saturday October 1st are both fully booked. We still have openings on all other remaining dates through October 8th
I thought the web page said the weekend of the 1st was the last weekend.
Keep some color for around the 17th...
Can't wait to see and smell them!

Photos and Updates From 2015
Newberry Fall Color Report – 10/5 – What a difference a few days (and cool nights) can make! We are seeing a lot more color now, especially where the trees are not as protected as they are in the woods. If you don’t mind driving the “highways” of the area (as opposed to getting deep in the Yooper woods by a gravel road or a two track) you will see some decent color, BUT if you can wait a couple more days it’ll be even better.
I think by this coming weekend, viewing in the area should be pretty good and in SOME places will be close to 60% if not more!! The new “water reflection photo” was taken a couple of days ago. Keep checking back!

Newberry Fall Color Report – 10/01 – The new photo to go with the report today shows a bit more color than what we’ve been seeing. AND it depends on where you are as to how much color there is. Reports have it that the Toonerville Trolley and Boat Tour are showing about 50% along the river, but you can see from this post that is not the case along side the road.
We took a drive towards Lake Superior and didn’t see hardly any color change going N. out of Eckerman. Then we went on Curly Lewis Hwy which runs e-w and not much there. We cut across on a side road towards Strongs which runs n-s and the photo is pretty representative of what we saw on that 9 mile stretch.
We have had very chilly early a.m. temps and frost which will help the colors start to change more quickly. I think if you try to time it for around October 8 + you should be good.
