  • Fall color - last week of Oct

    Thinking of taking a long drive... Blue Ridge of VA, thru PA, NY, MA, VT and ME.

    Can't go till Oct 22nd. Is that too late for color?

    Any suggestions:
    Best areas to drive though?
    Super neat towns for overnight stays?
    To do-and-see stuff up that-a-way?

    Well that is a LONG drive!

    I would imagine that the northeast will be past full peak by then:

    It is a shame you could not start this trip next week as I know a couple of loops in the Adirondaks which would be killer for color.

    I imagine your best bet will be the southeast.

      I was in VT this past week and although it was not peak, it was beautiful. You could see more color each day. Upstate NY hardly had any color. We were very surprised.

        Pretty much close to peak in southern Maine now. Think south of here by late in the month.

          Looks like 2009 is not our year for that long NE drive. The Adirondacks and Catskills are at or near peak. We're already too late for ME.

          Next year we'll plan to hit ME on 1 October and slowly work our way back down.

          In which towns should we stay over?

            Yeah Robert, I would guess that the Adirondacks and VT will be pretty much past peak by the time you get there. NY, here in the Saratoga area is not at peak yet.
            We just returned today from a week in Poconos in PA and they are changing but not at peak yet there either.
