Welcome to Week 11 of the 9th Annual U.P. Fall Color Report, this is the #1 place to follow for fall color progression every year across the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Thanks for subscribing to the FunintheUP newsletter, not only will you find the UP Fall Color report through peak fall color season, I will also be doing UP Snow Reports and have all the usual 80+ snow stations daily snow totals, and videos through the winter. I will also be doing some giveaways, share with you my adventures, and other special fun things.

U.P. Wide Overall Color Change - Peak-Past Peak

This week we saw most of the Upper Peninsula move into peak color and others especially along Lake Superior and Lake Michigan that were just moving into peak earlier in the week. Things were a bit dry this year and the colors weren't the greatest I've ever seen but there were some nice pockets of color if you drove around enough to find it. I will try to post some pictures later tonight, I have been busy trying to get things done before we start getting into the cold weather and rains starting tomorrow, today is going to be our last night warm day it looks like, then it’s moving into winter, I am totally not ready for it, that’s life in the Upper Peninsula, move from season to season in a heart beat.

This will be the last UP Fall Color Report for 2022. My posts will not stop however, I will be posting some adventures, pictures, videos, and of course snow season is coming, so the UP snow totals will start soon (we had our first snow Oct 7th).

First off I want to thank all of you who became subscribers and especially those who became paid subscribers. It really means a lot to me of your support as it helped put some money into the gas tank so I could do these Fall Color Reports. This was the 9th year that I have done the UP Fall Color Report and it was another fun year. I drove 4660 miles this fall just for the UP Fall Color Report, the most ever by about 1000 miles, just over $1300 dollars was spent on gas. Your continued support is much appreciated as I put on even more miles during the winter, about 50-70 a day for 5-6 months measuring snow at 6 snow stations and doing live drive videos and video reports on the winter snowfall. FunintheUP.com is also the #1 source for UP Snow Totals all winter, I have been doing snow reports since 2010.

There is plenty of color still to be seen and enjoy for the…
