Carl Heilman: Leaf Peeping In Lake George
Leaf peeping in Lake George NY is a great way to discover some of the most spectacular views in the area come fall. Just see for yourself! Carl Heilman shares his photographs of the colorful views overlooking the lake and where you, yourself, can go to take in the magnificent view that you see in the photo (and possibly capture an amazing phtograph yourself). Timing is everything with leaf peeping. Luckily, we have Carl Heilman to share his expertise on where and when the best time to go leaf peeping is: "Fall colors are pretty much an elevation thing. Highest go first followed by the valleys and foothills. Typically colors start in the central High Peaks (Adk Loj area - 2000 to 3000 feet) around the last week of Sept. and work out from there with nice overlap in a good season. Colors in Lake Placid / Keene Valley and other areas ( 1500 - 2000 feet) will generally be around first week of October. Lower elevations toward the next week with latest being in the Champlain Valley / Lake George area near the third week of Oct. or later - (100 to 1000 feet)" Where: View of Lake George from Asas Island near Hague Where: View looking toward Lake George village from Stewarts Ledge Where: Brant Lake Where: Brant Lake Where: Lake George from Phantom Island, looking toward Black Mountain Where: Field in Bolton Landing, view of The Narrows of Lake George Where: Spectacle Pond, Lake George Wild Forest |
