Those of you who are planning to attend the NENP autumn outing in Rangeley Maine this weekend the Conservation Department of the state of Maine just issued a foliage report. I have included an excert from that report:
"Forest rangers are now observing early peak conditions of at least
75 percent color change in all of northern Maine from Fort Kent Zone 7) to Jackman (Zone 5), Greenville (Zone 5) and Millinocket (northern Zone 4). Peak color is also being reported in the western lakes and mountains region between Bethel (Zone 5) and Eustis (Zone 5). Leaf drop is low, or less than 30 percent, in each of these areas, and the vibrant color is expected to remain through next week."
The clouds that are forecast for Saturday shoudl help with photos to show the good color. See ya'll in Rangeley !
