SW Vermont foliage report

Drove into Bennington today...

There is basically nothing left above 2000 feet here in the Greens; about 80-90% bare trees, the rest having some yellows and orange/brown. 1500-2000 is a bit better; I am not sure what the Wilminton (Mt. Snow) valley is like right now but I'd imagine it has some color with fairly substantial leaf drop.

Bennington area still has lots of color, though I didn't find it that spectacular. Some areas, especially near the monument, are still several days from peak, but areas that peaked early have a lot of drop. Manchester, being further north and higher, probably has more drop but should still have some color left.
