This image from the Bartram Trail by Annette Gelbrich shows some excellent color in Rabun County at higher elevations and plenty of leaf change to come. It was taken on the weekend of October 24, 2009. The leaves at the top of Brasstown Bald were gone by October 22, although the drive to the top still had some excellent reds and yellows.To the west, GA Highway 52 from Ellijay to Fort Mountain was in full color on the weekend of October 24 as well. Its a beautiful and easy scenic drive with multiple pull-offs for the peepers.
Fort Mountain has a scenic overview (near the CCC tower). While nearby trees are in full color, the valleys nearby are only at 25-50%.
