Where is Your Favorite Place to See Fall Colors?

We're putting together a color tour guide; tell us where you go to see the red, orange and gold leaves of the season.

Before the leaves fall, turn brown and beg to be raked, they color the hillsides of Michigan's highways and the banks of the state's rivers with the colors of the season. Where do you go to appreciate the colors of fall? We're putting together a color tour of the state and need readers to help us map out the best locations. Whether it's along M-22 in northern Michigan or on a wooded path in your own hometown, we are looking for color tour suggestions. And feel free to share your photos here, too. Just click on "add your photos & video." Do you have a favorite spot? Tell us about it!
