The fall color show on Mackinac Island is bursting forth this week with brilliant displays of gold and orange and crimson. There is still a fair amount of green but the splashes of color throughout the island are especially vibrant this year. Look for absolute peak sometime near this weekend with plenty of color next week and into next weekend.

Western U.P., Michigan – FALL COLOR REPORT – September 29 , 2012 – Color everywhere…Were at or very near Peak in Gogebic county. As always, the color changes at varying times in different locations …reds still prevalent…nice deep oranges..the golds are iridescent…and yellows are showing up more and more. You can pick just about any road and drive…you mite want to try some of the lesser traveled roads in the Ottawa…Do a little scouting around and youll find a special spot with gorgeous color. Remember, near the Lake Superior Shore, the colors are usually about a week or more later than inland.

Elk Rapids – September 18, 2010
Leaves are mostly green right now in Elk Rapids, MI, just north of Traverse City, however, there are a few splashes of color from some trees anxious to get the fall color show going.

Newberry – September 12, 2010
A little bit of fall color and a rainbow… Fall colors are just starting. There are splotches of yellow and orange on some of the maples, a few blushes of pinks and reds mixed in but nothing to get excited about yet. (Courtesy of Northcountry Campground & Cabins – www.michiweb.com/northcountry )

Newberry


September 24, 2008 — It is cloudy today but the dismal tint of the western sky only enhances the color of the trees. I would say that our immediate area is at about 35-40% with fall foliage. If you came up now, you would see some beautiful trees but if you can wait about 5-7 days, you will enjoy your trip more. — Cathy Clementz – Northcountry Cabins & Campground

Traverse City

September 21, 2008 — Beautiful weather and great weather in the forecast. So far just a bit of color overall in the trees. Here and there, though, you’ll see the early volunteers in full blaze. Peak season is still 2 to 3 weeks away in Traverse City.

Gaylord

September 10, 2008 — I made a trip to Gaylord on Wednesday. Just a tinge of color in some trees here and there. Otherwise everything was looking very green. Still 2 to 3 weeks away from any significant color in the Gaylord area and 3 to 5 weeks away from the peak.

Here are a couple of photos from Treetops. (Click to enlarge.)

Below are some photos from last year of Benzie County from LuckyGus on Flickr:
