Hi,

I am from CT. Planning to drive around VT on Saturday Oct 10.
This would be my tentative route:
Montpelier ---> Stowe ( rt 100) ---> Smugglers Noth ( 108) ----> Hyde Park ---> Wolcott ---> Craftsbury ----->Peacham ---> Ricker Pond ----> back home.

Would this route take me to most coveted peak foliage areas? OR I need to make any changes?
is it worth going to the Top of Mt Mansfield at this time?

Would gladly welcome any suggestions for this trip.

Thanks,
Tamal20
