Beautiful scenery. I had wanted to drive the Parkway until I saw the episode of "Top Gear" and saw the speed limits are the same as Yellowstone, 25 MPH! 35 MPH! & 45 MPH! My Conestoga Wagon can't make those speeds so I guess I will have to walk it. The AT at least has rest-stops built in, but no porta-potties.
Thanks. As far as the speed limit goes? I never see cops up there but plenty of little exotic car clubs.... Funny thing is that it is a tourist area, so flying through the Parkway is not really a good idea as people are slowing for overlooks trail heads etc. When traffic is light I find most people drive it at about 50mph.

Beautiful shots, Geffory! That first one is fabulous in download.
Thanks Marg, I kinda like that one a lot as well, a lot of people are put off by the flare, I find that it kinda sets the mood of a morning sunrise.

I really wanted to be up there by Sunrise but I missed it by an hour or so, not to worry I live up here and we have about 2 more weeks of color and I will definitely get back up there again.
Beautiful images

Great set of photo's. No need for me to ride up to view, I'll just sit here and watch for your photo's, and it shall make for one less car on the BRP.....lol

There are some roads with stunning views that should not be viewed by the driver. This Parkway falls in that category. The worst I have experienced is Yellowstone. EVERYWHERE is a scenic view! The bison add further delays. If views are your thing, Yellowstone cannot be topped.

GREAT PICTURES. Looks like a great place to visit. The fall colors really enhance the pictures.
