From Tom Randle…
What a fantastic day for checking out the back roads. They were ours alone once we were a few miles away from Hwy. 72. Spent most of the day in the Paint Rock Valley, but just had to end the day at the lower end of Little River Canyon. (Wife’s favorite)
Color peak is about 1000 – 1500 ft. elevation. The lower elevations apparently have had considerable frost or freezing temperatures with resulting loss of leaves.
Even after dark the colors were amazing. The shot of the moon is about 5 miles from the mouth of the canyon. (Southern end)
Pictures are of maple in brilliant Fall foliage in the Paint Rock River Valley and Moonrise over Little River Canyon with more red maple. Taken Nov. 4, 2006.
