You’re right about that. One fall color map shows middle Tennessee where I am at Near Peak, but we are just starting to show some color.

Here's a link for a live web cam: https://www.see.cam/us/va/cliftop/babcock-glade-creek-gristmill

Most states have traffics cams on-line. Often that's handy to see how colors are progressing.

The long link for the "see.cam" seems to show a July 29th image. I could not get an updated image. I would trust the state parks site instead.

Keep in mind that they are predictions& I think a little behind this year. You still have some time but don't wait to long.

I was at Babcock exactly one week ago, and the colors were just beginning to change. I would imagine they are at their peak this week. Here's a shot of the Grist Mill.

Mark Denney, who has a YouTube channel, recently did a post processing video, where he edited that same photo that he took. What a beautiful image.

Almost looks like a Thomas Kincaid painting.

Not ready for prime time. Everything seems to at least a week later than last year
