As the summer tourist season ends on Mackinac Island, many of the horses leave the island for winter pastures on the mainland in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
The sight of the departing horses being led through the streets of downtown Mackinac Island is always bittersweet scene of late summer and early fall. Here are some of the latest photos.
