About this campground

The Sault Ste Marie and St Ignace Ranger District have spectacular colors in the fall.  During late September, the Forest begins radiating the colors of crimson, yellow, gold, green and brown.  At this time of year the woods, water, flora and fauna are richly picturesque.  Hike our many trails or drive the network of roads throughout the forest.  Use the forest map to find roads that have the best fall color or pick up additional information on camping and hiking at our area offices.
