Photo

The kids are back in school, there’s a chill in the morning air and some leaves are starting to change. Time to think about PA Fall Foliage trips!

Pennsylvania has some wonderful tools to help you start planning, including the www.FallinPA.com website with updated foliage reports and webcams (beginning late September), highlights of special destinations and a fall activity/travel planner.

The Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, the Hawk Mountain and Waggoner’s Gap birdwatching areas, the PA Wilds area and lots of other activities and desitations await you.

The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources is also making key personnel available to the media to serve as regional experts on fall foliage. The experts are available to discuss the chemistry of fall foliage color, as well as the projected outlook for fall foliage in various regions of Pennsylvania.

The experts include: Northeast Pennsylvania: Brad Elison, Scranton; Northwest Pennsylvania: Cecile Stelter, Warren; Southeast Pennsylvania: Sandra Insalaco, Elverson; Southcentral Pennsylvania: Ed Dix, Harrisburg; Southwest Pennsylvania: Dave Planinsek, Laughlintown; Northcentral Pennsylvania: Chris Firestone, Wellsboro.

To contact any of the experts, please call Christina Novak or Terry Brady, DCNR, at 717-772-9101.
