    As a local I would HIGHLY recommend that people try to not come during the Columbus/Indigenous People's weekend. The traffic is very crowded and the northern areas like Crawford Notch and Smugglers Notch are often past peak, especially this year as the holiday is late (12th to 14th). Come the weekend before if you can. It will be much more enjoyable. Otherwise, if you have to, plan on coming EARLY Friday morning and not leaving until LATE Monday. North 93 will be a logjam at the Hooksett tolls by noon Friday all the way north.

      There's so much! I grew up and still live in Massachusetts. What are you interested in and when would you like to visit? Autumn is beautiful, Christmas is magical but can fluctuate from warmish to frigid (I've seen 50° one day and 2 days later it's 10°!). Summer is wonderful and everyone spends time outside in nature. Winter, January through March is awful and don't recommend for tourism. We get Nor'easters, a weather pattern found only in new england and sometimes reaches canada. Its an actual hurricane of snow and ice, it always brings in frozen temps that freezes everything. April is our big Patriots day celebration. There's tons of historical events and parties all through spring, summer and fall.

      Both times I’ve been to New Hampshire and the Kanc have been on the October federal holiday weekend. It was peak foliage the first year and just past the second year. So like October 10. I usually go around October 1-14. But check the foliage report. October 1 will still be fairly green but sometimes I’ve gone just bc that is when I had the time! Conneticut is GREAT later in October too and lasts longer if you can’t go around October 8-14 time.

    If you’re in Franconia, a moderate hike to Lonesome Lake is worth it. There’s a lake on top of the mountain facing the notches you’d see on the left of Artist Bluff. I wish I could post pictures. The reflection of the mountains in the lake is so beautiful.

    Question to those who live in or have travelled in this area. If you had about 9/10 days to see NYC and the New England area (road tripping with a hire car) how would you split up your time? We will have a 2 and 4 year old with 2 adults. We have done NYC before so I think 2/3 days there will be ok. We are coming from Australia 😅

      You could do the trip in 10 days if you keep a tight schedule of skip some spots such as Portland! Or even less if you only have a few days. Drive to NH and do 3 days and then 2-3 in Stowe.

      If you just do Vermont and New Hampshire you can do a nice long weekend trip for 4 days. If you want those two and CT I would do it in 6-7 days and a bit longer to add Maine. If you have a smaller number of time I would do VT, NH and CT!

      It depends and changes every year!! This is all taken around October 5-20 with the New Hampshire part being taken at the October federal holiday. In 2022 the leaves were incredible on that weekend and in 2023 they were falling a bit. Just depends on tons of things like weather sunlight bugs etc! Check foliage calendars online!

    • @robertthompson9643
      @robertthompson9643 2 місяці тому

      Leaves will start to fall earlier on older trees or in areas more exposed to the elements. Some varieties like red maples also turn earlier than the oak and birch trees.
