Week 4: North Carolina Mountains Fall Color Report
This week, the colors have started becoming more pronounced, with a definite increase in scarlet, brick red, and orange, although there are still lots of green trees at our elevation (2,300 feet). The view from the Lake View room is quite colorful this time of year. Here’s a photo taken yesterday (note in the foreground across the water — our two curvy “Dr. Seuss” trees, as one of our guests calls them, are still green):

Week 2: North Carolina Mountains Fall Color Report
The majority of trees are still a Summery green this second week of Autumn at our elevation (2,300 feet) and location near Black Mountain, NC. On our drive around Asheville today, we noticed some trees are starting to lighten up a little, and there are a handful of colorful standouts scattered throughout Pisgah National Forest. We had quite a bit of rain last week, but sunny skies and cool, dry weather are in the forecast, which is typically good for bringing out fall leaf color in October.
