One perk of living in the Traverse City area is there are so many hiking trails 
in addition to miles and miles of Lake Michigan shoreline.
Recently, I hiked two areas known for their brilliant fall foliage:
Hickory Meadows/Hills is just west of Traverse City.

 And Clay Cliffs, north of Leland. This preserve  is part of the Leelanau Conservancy lands.

The view of Pyramid Point from the overlook | 
Gorgeous view of the Manitou Islands from the overlook | 
 It's a lovely time to hike these trails.
Though you'll find me out hiking along Lake Michigan in all sorts of weather and in all seasons.
