Winter has barely registered across Michigan but you can start dreaming about summer days in the “Little Finger” in the northwest area of the Lower Peninsula with your free copy of the 2012 edition of the Traverse City magazine.
The cover of the 104-page guide, which is published by the Traverse City Convention & Visitors Bureau, features Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The scenic spot was voted by viewers of ABC’s Good Morning America as “The Most Beautiful Place in America.”
An introductory piece breaks the sprawling Grand Traverse territory into five regions. Articles, photos, maps, guides, charts and advertising describe indoor and outdoor activities, wining and dining, shopping and events throughout the area.
The info should answer all of your questions about visiting the area except, “What am I waiting for?”
Preview the guide online when you order your paper copy. Golfers can also sign up to receive the 2012 Golf Guide, which is scheduled for shipping in February.
