Bald Knob at Canaan

This area on top is now just past peak. The maple colors are dropping as evident if you compare the previous Bald Knob photos. The heath has lost a lot of foliage as well. Over on Weiss Knob viewed from Bald Knob, the birch color has filled in fairly fast. The valley maples are coming in nice, birches on the transition. Locust, cherry, blahhh

Elevation on top Baldy 4350′

Canaan Valley

Maples rapidly changing, birches starting, some (most)of the best colors are from them …also a morning rain shower pushing through, a few showers falling from the smallest of clouds…

Canaan Mountain

Up on top of Canaan Mt is much different than being on the east side of Canaan Mt. (Especially the southern end on the east side where color lacks) On top, lots of maple, and it appears alot of stressed maples due to the terrain they grow in. Boggy wet areas, cold pockets. These maples are at or just past peak. I love the area for early color, much earlier than today. Today still held decent color though

Over the Allegheny Front on Rt 33 to Seneca Rocks

Spotty colored foliage top to bottom …right on the rocks, decent foliage

Up n over Spruce

Maples coming in strong in spots, overall just a dull look to the west(despite Gandy Creek area being great) and the typical green to the east.

Sinks of Gandy

A dry look with some color right at the Sinks area. Much more down the Gandy…

For the best color…..Down the Gandy from the Sinks to just south of Whitmer. Peak, bright and fantastic color

Fantastic color along the Gandy. Period.
