Hey! Not so fast - Strictly not recommended for autum color touring is this high speed travel on Michigan byways. The wise motorist takes it nice and s-l-o-w, especially at this time of year, when every turn in the road turns up a different view of Michigan's autumn color spectacular. The Copper Country has many such scenic roads. [Image of a vehicle speeding down a tree covered road.] Scanned: November 12, 2007 |

Seven miles of highway, recently paved, between Quincy and Calumet was marked with white and yellow lines by the Michigan state highway department Thursday afternoon. Sunshine, an infrequent visitor in the area in recent days, made the painting project by this motor propelled machinery impossible following completion of the paving by the Thornton Construction Co. about two weeks ago. Pick up truck in rear set up rubber caution markers to permit drying of paint. [The painting crew attempts to paint the lines as traffic passes by.] Scanned: November 16, 2007 |

This is the almost impenetrable road which leads one from M-26 into the Winona area. It is almost impossible to get to the King Philip Shaft via car once the area of the nearby Sleeping River is reached. [Image of snow-covered trees and snow banks.] Scanned: December 6, 2006 |
