Foliage Central
Look no further for lovely leaves....they happen to border the page, but this Yankee Magazine offshoot will also direct you to the actual places to see the best and the brightest of the fall season. From the Editor's picks to the top trails and driving tours, they've got the autumnal scene covered. Even a link to a live shot of some trees!

Foliage Tour of Vermont
Yea, this site is for leaves in Vermont only, but their foliage IS world famous (check out the bright and shining photos).Travel Vermont offers plenty of tips and links that should make your autumnal journey more enjoyable, such as the least crowded travel times, best routes, and lodging advice for the foliage novice (hint: BOOK AHEAD!).

Fall Color Hotline
The look of this government site (dull black & white) definitely does NOT reflect the subject matter, but it is a most helpful page. Call the 1-800 number to track the most vibrant colors, follow the links to New England and countrywide foliage updates, and find out why leaves change color. Our favorite? The Chemistry of Fall Colors...

Photo Guide to New England Foliage
Oooh, pretty pictures of the covered bridges and backroads of New England, home of some of the most stunning foliage in the world. In addition to the colorful photos, the photographer included some tips on driving tours (in Vermont) and links to Michelin and Amazon (for atlases-how thoughtful!).
