Where to go: Head inland to places like Tettegouche Lake Overlook, Mount Trudee, Mount Baldy, Tettegouche Camp and Palisade Valley for the best views of fall color. Inland, maples are passing peak showing orange and red. Aspen and birch are at peak as well. There's still a lot of green along the shore, which is still at about 25%. The shoreline should start to see more color in the coming week.
What you'll see: Now's a great time to look for migrating raptors along the shore and inland ridges. Eagles, hawks and falcons have been observed crusing the shoreline on their journey south.
Also of interest: Due to reconstruction of the trail to Shovel Point, the Shovel Point trail will be closed on weekdays until further notice. If you're looking for somewhere to find similar views, check out Palisade Head. From these cliffs you'll see sweeping views of the shoreline, the lake, and the sawtooth mountains.
Last updated: October 3, 2013Can’t decide between a one-day or year-round park permit? The DNR has a special offer that can help. Start by purchasing a one-day permit for $5 and visit as many state parks as possible. After visiting the state parks, trade in the one-day permit by the end of that day and get $5 off the purchase of a year-round permit. Year-round permits, which cost $25, provide unlimited access to all 76 Minnesota state parks and recreation areas for a full year from the month of purchase.
