CHIMNEY ROCK OFFERS SPECTACULAR WAYS TO VIEW PEAK FALL COLOR Leaf peepers hoping to catch fall colors during their peak won't have to look far to fi nd it now. Brilliant reds and yellows are appearing at Chimney Rock at Chimney Rock State Park, and peak fall colors are expected in ar- eas of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure from mid-October through early No- vember. Guests can plan their visits with weekly fall color and wildfl ower reports at chimneyrockpark.com. Chimney Rock offers spectacular ways to view autumn color this year, from expert- and self-guided hikes to a photography workshop. The Park has been voted one of the top three Readers' Choice "Best Scenic Views" by Southern Living magazine. Thanks to the recent streak of sunny days and cool nights, upper eleva- tions of Chimney Rock have started to brighten with color more than a week earlier than anticipated. The sourwoods are the most brilliant now with a vibrant red! Other reds are appearing in the red maples, black gum (or tupelo) trees and Virginia creepers. Yellows are bursting onto the Park's fall spectrum as well! Poison ivy, tulip poplar and hickory trees are starting to brighten, and the Fraser magnolia trees are taking on a greenish-yellow. Birch, walnut and basswood leaves are also just start- ing to turn. Meanwhile, fall wildfl owers are blooming now, including the Pink Turtlehead, Golden Aster, White Wood Aster and Late Purple Aster, Snakeroot and Goldenrod. Peak colors can be expected for several weeks starting in mid-October due to the range in elevation from 2,500 to 1,100 feet and a large variety of deciduous trees in the Hickory Nut Gorge. Catching Colors at Their Peak. Fall in the mountains rewards leaf peepers with brilliant displays of leaf color, and Chimney Rock shows the full spectrum—from deep red and maroon to fi ery yellow and orange. When plan- ning a trip during the fall leaf season, be sure to check the Park's weekly fall color updates online at chimneyrock- park.com. Chimney Rock offers countless ways for leaf peepers to view the beautiful autumn foliage. View striking fall colors from the end of a rope high above the Gorge. Sign up for a rock climbing adventure with Fox Mountain Guides, and bring your friends to save money with a group rate. No prior experience is nec- essary. Two-hour, half- and full-day clinics are available. In addition to autumn color, fall brings a variety of bird calls from migrating birds heard throughout the Park. Join world-traveled expert Simon Thompson for a guided Southbound Migration bird walk on Saturday, October 23 from 9 a.m.-noon. Soak up 75-mile panoramic views on top of the Chimney. Elevations in 14-mile-long Hickory Nut Gorge range from 1,100 feet on the valley fl oor to more than 2,500 feet on the mountain peaks. This is the most dramatic and popular way to get your fall color fi x! Remember, the elevator is out of service for amodernization until April 2012, so be prepared for the 25-minute hike up stairs. Immerse yourself in the vibrant leaf colors by hiking along the Hickory Nut Falls trail. Study the diverse range of leaf colors from oak and hickory to red maple and enjoy gazing at the 404-ft. waterfall—the 2nd highest on the east coast—at the trail's end. Shutterbugs looking for expert tips and tricks to frame fall colors should attend the two-day Shutterbugs Na- ture Photography Workshop at the Park on October 29-30, from 8:30am-4pm Saturday & 8:30am-3pm Sunday. Award-winning WNC photographer Jeff Miller's work has been featured in many regional, state and national publications. For details and to register, visit chimneyrockpark.com/events.
