New England Foliage: Day 10


Sugarbush Ski Resort.


Great Sugarbush color.


Hillside home along Common Road in Waitsfield.

Bingo! Finally, Vermont at its colorful best. My wife and I left Barnard this morning for Waitsfield, Warren and Sugarbush despite more rain and cold.
It turned out to be a serendipity day. We drove down a farming road, Common Road, in Waitsfield and witnessed some of the most vibrant colors we have seen on this 16-day trip around New England. But that was just the beginning. When we drove up to Sugarbush Ski Resort, I almost had a religious experience as witnessed by my photos.
Sugarbush was quintessential Vermont — reds and orange mixed with yellow and green. Wow, wow, wow!
Returning to Barnard, we hit a major rainstorm but not before I got the photographs I have been wanting since Oct. 2.
Tomorrow it’s back to Connecticut and visiting old friends and family and hoping to get a few more good leaf photos.
