Nancy Haun traveled all over Baraga County backroads looking for color last week and she successfully found some beautiful hues. Her first photo was snapped along the Dishno Road off the Peshekee Grade. She said it’s a beautiful road with some gorgeous scenery and comes out on the Yellowdog Plains just shy of the Eagle Mine. Her second shot was taken at the Headwaters of the Peshekee River Marsh. Just look at that pop of orange color, WOW!

Nancy also made a video during her travels at the Four Beers Corner – aka -West Branch Huron River Road - and the Haypress Dam area - Headwaters of the Peshekee. I’ll have to take her word for it, since I have no idea where in Baraga County this is. Somewhere I may just have to explore some time.

We received a Press Release from the Calumet Theatre to share:

The episode title is Death Car which relates tales about (from the Travel Channel promotional material) “a menacing medieval castle, a terrifying train car straight out of a nightmare and a gilded opera house turned makeshift morgue, and are all the dire domain of the undead.” The Calumet Theatre would be the “opera house”.

Beautiful photos. I did see some color out here
in MN, but nothing like that. I wish we wouldn't
have missed peak. Oh well, there's always next
year.

Nice colors!!

Beautiful! If my boss had not scheduled annual meetings for next week I'd be sitting at the Ambassador tonight enjoying my favorite pizza.

The folks a NOAA finally got a clear satellite photo today showing the status of colors. They seem to be extending fairly well south.

Beautiful!

I think I felt every calm feeling that Nancy felt while watching that video...thanks for the outing.

Nancy has a public facebook page with many pictures on it.

I love that video. Want to say, 'Thank You', Nancy, for that. If you ever make it out there again, make the video a little longer.....:O) Very calming.

The Haypress Dam? That was a new one for me as well, but Eureka, I found it!

"Take the Peshekee Grade north from US-41 (just east of Michigamee) for 14.8 miles. A small pull off will be on the right side of the road near one of the grade's rock cuts. Park here and follow the trail that leads down to the river."
