October in The Mad River Valley

October is here...the leaves they are a changin'...

Come to The Mad River Valley and enjoy them! While Hurricane Irene did a number on many of our roadways (almost all of which are back in operation due to the monumental efforts of state and local road crews), she had NO NEGATIVE IMPACT on the majority of trees. They are changing color right on schedule, and it's looking to be a spectacular display!

While you're here, there are plenty of other things to do, both outdoor and indoor, to round out your fall vacation. Mornings are foggy, afternoons are sunny & warm, and evenings are clear & brisk.
