LEAF PEEPING
“Every leaf speaks bliss to me,
fluttering from the autumn tree.”
-Emily Brontë
September may be the first month of the fall season, but you don’t have to wait
until the month is underway to steal a glimpse of fall colors in the trees overhead.
Beginning as early as late August in some places, all you have to do is look up at
the trees on surrounding mountains.
It’s true - the first hints of fall color start off at the highest vistas first, then week
after week, sweep down to the lower elevations and valleys.
The reason why has everything to do with the cooler temperatures found at these
higher elevations.
