Fall Foliage: Here are some short trips for leaf-peeping

Time to soak up the colors while we can.

Yes, it’s that time of year. The pumpkins are on the doorsteps, the nights are colder and the rainy days have started.

It's also time to soak up the burst of fall color before we settle in for the gray days of winter.

If you’re looking for a fall color trip this weekend, check out the Washington state LeafQuest guide, from our friends at Mapquest, which highlights the Mount Rainier Loop, North Cascades National Park and the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest.
