How are the fall colors in Michigans Northeastern Lower Peninsula right now?|162685

I_m thinking of visitting some place in the north eastern part of Michigan_s Lower Peninsula. Anywhere from Cheboygan to Alpena to Tawas. They say the fall colors peak there in late September to early October, but I_m not sure that_s true for this year (2007). So how are things there now and where is a good place to see spectacular fall colors?

The areas that you speak of and in the _rolling country_
from Mancelona up to Charlevoix and that general area
are usually pretty good ,think they may have just started
but haven_t had a projection on the _peak_ times yet.
Think you_re a tad early.


Haven_t done so yet, but think a beautiful view would be
from the sleeping bear dunes back towards Glen Lake
and the surrounding area. It_s a nice woodsy drive from the
dunes South to at least Frankfort.
