[ixl]

Thanks for the update bm... still hope I can get up that way sometime but not sure I can swing it this week....

Send me the pic and I will put it on my site for you and link it here. --c

Here's bm's photo... (bm, I resized your photo because you sent me a 1600x1200 image that was 500kb in size, it would not have worked well in a browser at that size. Hope that's okay.)

I was out there last year. You're right about a SUV. I had to walk.

Amazing how much that looks like the dam at the Somerset Reservoir, actually.

Okay I just realized... here's a chance for us to "calibrate" what we mean by "peak". What do you all think of the trees visible in the background in bm's picture? Near peak, peak, past peak? --c

Past peak for me too. The bare trees are wide spread. While there are bare trees during peak it's usually a single tree or a small pacth of red maples in a swamp. Colors up here are better and that's all bass-ackwards. Another year of this and I'm retiring as moderator by the jeezum.

This is how beautiful the area between Warren and Bristol was on Friday, late afternoon.

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

Okay, you guys agreed with my assessment, still lots of nice trees but a bit past peak. Thanks. --c
