- October 2023 - A 3-day hiking trip took us from Mesick north to connect sections of the trail we missed. We also ventured north a bit and hiked to Guernsey Lake. The fall color on this trip was at PEAK! Getting to be among that intense beauty was such a blessing. I'd never seen such vibrant color in my life, and I will never forget it. So, grab a drink and settle in because I want to share as much of that beauty as I can with you.
This video also contains the introduction of "Hey, Dad!" into my adventures. I explain that when we reach Highbanks Rollway Vista, so watch for that.
Enjoy! And happy hiking!
Amazing fall colors! We enjoyed your video and the Hey Dad segments. Thank you for taking us along!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
This an amazing video. You captured the essence of the perfect fall in Michigan. My fear is this will go viral and then our best kept little secret won't be a secret anymore. I love the outtakes. They make me laugh out loud.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. :) And glad the outtakes were amusing to you. haha! I crack myself up sometimes.
Your red pine is a White pine lol 😊
haha! Thanks! They said red and I couldn't remember.
Those yellow pines are Tamarack trees. Google has some fun facts about them. I noticed them in the fall of 2022 when I was driving through the UP to see my nephews football game so I found out what they were...
And WOW those colors were POPPING!!!!
Tamaracks are awesome! Yeah, I ended up looking them up after because they reminded me of videos I'd seen of Larch trees out west, and they are also called Eastern Larch. So cool. Loved those. And yeah ... the colors were SO bright this year! Such a fun blessing.
Oh what a lovely reprieve, re-visiting our lovely Fall we had. I will have to look up Harvey bridge. Do you happen to know the mile marker?
Harvey Bridge is very near NCT Mile 779.5 (from the NCT website most recent maps). Northeast of Mesick. Hiking just about anywhere along the Manistee River is amazing!
Thanks Krista!
