Thanks Solo, I also love the tamaracks changing to that nice yellow ochre.  We went out from Mudro thru Lower Basswood Falls on Oct 20th up into Crooked and came back thru LBF on Oct 24th and looped around thru Jackfish Bay this past season.   There were since a few small pockets of birch since changing, but most leaves were down.  We normally see birch changing around the first weekend of October.  maples start around mid September.
