May is peak season for hunting Morel Mushrooms in the wooded areas along M-22. Ask a Morel Mushroom hunter where he found his Morels and he will tell you a story. M-22 offers a paradise for bird watching, hiking, or biking enthusiasts. Enjoy the trillium and other wildflowers as you stroll through the forests of Leelanau, Manistee, and Benzie Counties. Northwest Michigan offers many miles of Lake Michigan shoreline to explore. Avid Petoskey Stone hunters find their greatest treasures in the spring along the shores of Lake Michigan.
