What is your favorite season on Mackinac?

Fall is always fun to watch the colors slowly change. Earlier this season we were able to capture this photo showcasing the beautiful color gradient of the trees along Cadotte. The entire left side had turned dark red, whereas the right side of the road was still slowly changing.

Sunrises never get old on Mackinac!
