Dear Anonymous - Our best fall color is usually from Oct 10-20th, with a peak around the 14th.  So, the second and third weeks should be ok, although by the end of the third week, the peak may have passed.  Colors will turn sooner (maybe a week earlier) at Beech, which is up at 5,000', compared to 3,300' in Boone.  However, this year, some trees are turning usually early (sugar and red maples, sourwoods, dogwoods), so I'm wondering what that will mean for peak color in October.  As we get closer to the peak time, we'll have a better idea of just what kind of a fall foliage color year we'll have.  This predicting is as much art as it is science!
