I LOVE NY started the “New York Fall Foliage Report” on September 14 and continue until the end of the foliage season, around the first or second week in November. Montgomery County has started its own annual report this year as well.
Reporting station: Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site, Fort Hunter
Percent of trees predicted to have changed by the coming weekend: 45%
Brilliance: Average
Predominating colors: Shades of darkening green with yellow and increasing oranges and reds
Rating: Midpoint
The foliage in Montgomery County has reached midpoint. Peak season should be approaching; some areas are starting to lose leaves but others are still green. There are still many autumn activities taking place this October. Visit the Taste of the Mohawk Valley Farmers’ Market or the Last Saturday Fall Festival. Or take a historic self-guided walking tour through the Green Hill Cemetery
in Amsterdam; the leaves on Church Street are a colorful array of red, yellow, and orange.
