STATE DEP ANNOUNCES FALL FOLIAGE WEB SITE
The Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection's fall foliage Web site is now available at www.ct.gov/dep/foliage.
The site features a fall foliage report, updated on Mondays and Wednesdays, to reflect the different levels of color change in foliage throughout the state, and also offers tips for leaf-peepers.
Chris Martin, the DEP's Director of Forestry, said that some trees are already changing color and that he expects the peak week for viewing Mother Nature's finery is expected to be around Columbus Day Weekend, especially in the hillier terrain where the vistas will take your breath away.
