Just drove from Lynchburg VA after visiting the kids at Liberty and drove the parkway. Dont wait too much longer!! from 4k feet up - about 50% of the trees have turned yellow, orange and red.My garage ceiling isn’t tall enough for a lift unfortunately but this is not my daily driver so I took the roof off in March and only take it out when the weather is good. Like you I am waiting for the color change (I must live somewhat near you on the TN side of the mountain) and going to hit the Blue ridge Parkway before putting the top back on for the winter. It’s been a glorious spring/summer/fall without the top. In fact I can’t really remember what it looks like with the top on.
We do this every Oct and got to drive the Bronco this time. Was only able to go topless on the front row since we are in Raleigh and were gone for about 3 days for the trip.
This was on Mt Mitchell...last year - we hit it right at Oct 12th and parts of the parkway including mitchell were closed for the season THAT DAY!! We literally arrived at craggy gardens and everything from there north for several exits past Mt Mitchell was closed for the season due to ice.
