 Current Fall Color Is Peak
We're now at or just a tad past peak on the far western end of the U.P. Red, burgundy, orange, gold, yellow and many in between hues. Today the sun is shining and it's "take your breath away gorgeous" -don't know how long this will last, but we'll enjoy while it's here. Barring any huge storms to take down the leaves, color should last through the weekend. Copper Peak Adventure Rides will run this weekend - always weather permitting- and the view should be spectacular.
