Michigan is difficult to predict when it comes to weather. In early October it could be snowing or people could be swimming in Superior. Yet nothing will prevent the leaves from changing to their autumn colors in senescence. For students suffering through midterms, the colors are an excellent excuse to take a break from those essays and exams and view the U.P’s beautiful landscape. Our North Wind staff has taken some time away to be able to share the fall colors with readers.  For information on places to view fall colors, visit https://www.travelmarquette.com/things-to-do/attractions/fall-colors/
