  • A quick flashback to last Monday morning at the same spot. The initial assumption by today is picture. Not much color. The leaves haven’t changed yet. In reality, bare trees and yet green oaks make it appear very colorless and the best maple color is now on the ground.

Spruce Knob

  • Aside the birch on top, foliage is well past peak. From Gandy, Spruce Knob lake and up. This terrible assumption year after year that is repeatedly posted about foliage starts changing on top and works it’s way down is ridiculous. This past week. Tourism promo stated ” At 4800′ Spruce Knob late September and by mid October Spruce Knob Lake. That’s done without knowing tree type and without any understanding of how much colder nights are down at the 3700′ valley vs the 4800′ top. Foliage all along Gandy is past peak. As you’ll see in more pics further below.

More leaves towards the top? Yes as you transition to this dominant birch zone. As around Spruce Knob lake is dominant maple
Any tourism site pushing peak colors mid October, should experience reality. (And rarely ever will you have peak colors west of Spruce Knob as late as mid October

Bald Knob Edition September 25, 2024

On top of Baldy. The maples have just crested peak. Colors about as good as they get with areas of leaf loss in progress. A few good rains with rapidly drop more of those to the ground. The birch seemed a bit duller than last week. Especially looking over to Weiss through the fog. I couldn’t tell if those had lost some or browned a bit.

The wild cherry had significant leaf drop walking up. Typical of them. Maples on the hillside were a mix of good color and some green. Locust were green/brown. Neither are dominant species.

Leaf Season in this immediate area:

  • Lots of birch and maple drop the last few days. Leaving some thin and bare spots with some of the brightest colors of our current fall foliage landscape. Cherry thins out rapidly and will not be providing much. The oaks with touches of change here and there. Well early for them. Beech, some yellow, some greens remain, before those brown up. Hickory, some yellow, some brown, some green. Ground cover(ferns, grasses) are golden, browns, with a few greens..

Leaf progression. Main species along the Yough for fall foliage is birch and maple.

  • While there is still yet birch to change, significant birch leaf drop has occured and will continue to do so as the remainder progress to golden yellows. Meaning this is probably nearly as good as it gets over the coming week. Maples, while not in abundance, adding splashes of reds, yellow, oranges, with some yet to complete there change. Leaf drop will be the big factor if it gets much better than it is now. I’d suspect it will slightly.
