What time of day is the best time to photograph the snow geese? Am, noon or afternoon, so that the sun isn't right in our face. We are going up in the morning, but it's a 3 hr drive up there from here. We plan on staying overnight. Any foliage left, if so so what do you suggest? Thanks Shirley

So, this is the time to come north to see the snow geese? We were thinking of going Friday & Sat.

I'll call that picture at the dam, past peak, lots of trees are bare.

Hi, thanks for all the great info on scenic back roads in VT. I've spent hours locating these spots and marking them on my Streets & Trips map program. Then printing them out, so they will be available when we hit the road again. We are planning on going up to Addison to see the snow geese, when som...

We just got home from a trip up NEK rt 114 color was nice not great, over Westmore road to Willoughby, color fair. Then King George Farm, I think this needs different light than we had today. In the morning the sun was out with a white sky, then it got dark after lunch, looked like rain, but it move...

Thank you. I don't think we've been there before, we are going up to NEK tomorrow and will check it out. Going to go to Groton SP also after that great report from moderator.

Yes, I'd love some suggestions. My husband loves dirt back roads, I love them because you can stop and photograph scenery without all that traffic.

My brother lives in Rutland, VT. What are the directions from there to where the snow geese are?
Thanks.
Shirley

Are they there now? I'd love to see them. When is the best time to go up there?

Shirley

Please let me know when it's peak. thanks.

How's the color near Waits River, Topsom, VT rt 25? There is a wonderful scene with a church, we've photographed that a couple of years, then it seems for years now we are too early or too late because of winds & rain.

DeLorme Atlas & Gazetteer is pretty good, except every thing you are searching for seems to be part on 1 page then go to another. It's a good place to start. Years ago when we were up in Peacham / Barnet I stopped at a general store and got a couple of local topo maps, but then most of the back dirt...

I don't go to Willoughby to see the lake. There are so many beautiful scenic views of farms etc with foliage in that area,that's why I go up there this time of year.

Another really nice view is near the top of the lake, on rte 5 is a road called Hinton Ridge Rd, drive up to the top, nice view of the lake and sometimes the trees up there are beautiful. Haven't been up there this year yet. This road continues on to 105 then Island Pond. Rt 114 from there is beauti...

Sorry that should of been West Burke, on Rt. 5, and it shows on MS Streets & Trips now.
It's called King George Farm or school.
