Nikki says An old wooden fence always looks it’s best in autumn.  This photo is also in the Little Traverse Bay Coop, a small group showing off the beauty of the Little Traverse Bay region.

On the group’s home page there are a few facts about the Bay:

• The Bay is about 3.5 miles wide between Petoskey and Harbor Springs
• The Bay is 8 miles wide at its outer end (between Nine Mile Point on the south and Seven Mile Point on the north)
• Between Petoskey and Harbor Springs it reaches a depth of about 170 feet.
• The outer bay drops to depths of more than 200 feet.
