Leaf report from yesterday, October 15! 🍁
Fall color is putting on a show at the higher elevations. The top photo was taken near Graveyard Fields on the Blue Ridge Parkway, where the ridges are lit up in red, orange, and gold.
Then we turned off onto NC 215, one of the region’s hidden gems: a winding two-lane road under a canopy of golden leaves. Along the way is Sunburst Falls, tumbling over the boulders and framed by fall color.
Color moves down the mountains toward Asheville over the coming weeks, so there’s still time to catch it. You know how to book. And if we’re full, our friends at Asheville Bed and Breakfast Association have more inns ready to welcome you for leaf season.
