USA - autumn colours in the White Mountains

The best day of my holiday for autumn colours. From Conway in New Hampshire we drove along the scenic Kancamagus Highway which was a small road through the White Mountain park. The Kancamagus Highway is 34 miles long and is one of the best Fall Foliage viewing areas. The road goes through the White Mountain National Forest with views of the White Mountains, the Swift River, Sabbaday Falls, Lower Falls and Rocky Gorge. Our first stop was at Lower Falls -

Then on to Rocky Gorge

A short walk through the woods brought us to this lake with an incredible reflection -

Next was a brief stop at a view point at an elevation of just under 3,000 feet, the highest point of the Kancamagus Pass on the flank of Mt. Kancamagus near Lincoln. 

 Mt. Kancamagus -

We left the scenic road at Loon, went through Lincoln and onto the highway. Stopped at a 'service station' -

Then crossed into Massachusetts and onto Boston.
