There are fantastic views from the various overlooks. However the entire road is in desperate need of a resurfacing. We visited in early October and the Fall Colors were just starting to change. Full review by Greg B

We've been on this road trip before. The road was a disappointment this time. It is in dire need of repair. Drive slow. The overlook was not a disappointment! Take your time to take in what you see. Full review by WinddancerDT3230CW

At least for us Midwestern flatlanders, riding up (especially the steeper east side) of BMD is a rewarding challenge. All the better if you do both sides with some loops on the quiet roads leading t… Full review by David K

I highly doubt it. The road itself is not in the best condition and is definitely a secondary road. I have not been there in winter, though. I would suggest contacting Michigan DOT or the tourist information service in Copper Harbor to confirm.
Planning a fall trip up north. I have 2 options: north shore, Minnesota or upper peninsula, Michigan. Can anyone tell me how the fall colours are around this time on this drive? Any specific suggestions for sightseeing? Travelling dates are 6-7th October,2017.

fall colors should be just great but I recommend calling a chamber of commerce or visitor's bureau in Marquette. They'll give you the straight scoop. Have fun.
Looking for a Fall Color Report from this location. In many places the trees are turning early due to the recent crisp air temps.

We were up there in mid August. I live about 4 hours south, and I can tell you we are already raking leaves here. I would think by mid October the leaves up there will be long gone. Not to mention the cold air will surely have set in by then, and might even be getting bits of snow. Try going mid September any given year!
I'm wondering whether this Brockway Mountain Drive is the same as the Copper Country Trail number 77 of the National Scenic Byways Program?
A:
No it is not the same trail system. I just did a search online and Brockway Mountain Drive goes off of Hwy 26 and heads inland. Where Hwy 26 goes along the lake shore.
