NC Mountain Events this Weekend

The Fall Leaf Season in the mountains kicks off with American Craft week, Corn Maze activities, pickin' apples in the orchards, Ghost Trains and pumpkin patches. Any mountain time is a magical time, but  there is something "extra" in the air as rich greens of the summer melt into reds and yellows against cool blue skies. Changes begin in the highest elevations and flow down to the waiting plateaus and valleys throughout the month of October.
