Fall in Pocahontas County



This weekend we had another great weekend with Dan and Pix in Pocahontas County. Judy and I were surprised that the trees were so glorious! Originally our idea was that this summer and fall have been so dry that we thought that the trees would turn brown and fall. We were wrong. Today we drove from Seebert to Glenville and we are posting the fall color especially for our west coast families.


Judy is on the trail at Cranberry Mountain information Center. The view from Cranberry Mountain is fantastic.




As we walked the trail, two species of trailing groundpine were poking out from the leaf litter.

The Cranberry Mountain Information and Nature Center is always a favorite rest stop for the leaf peepers. As we left, a tour bus from Florida was pulling into the facility.





I had to stop by Cranberry Glades Botanical Area to check out the fall foliage in this area.


The Round Glade was starting to bloom with the cotton grass.

What is more pleasing than a beaver pond in the fall?




The last two photos were taken from Powell's Mountain on Rt. #19. We hope you enjoyed our view of fall foliage. It is always so great to be able to live in this area.
