SOUTHBOUND

Autumn colours in Rhode Island and Connecticut were not as spectacular so our advice to anyone thinking of a holiday in New England to see the fall would be to come last week of September and first week in October and stick to Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.

Farewell New England you have been absolutely stunning.

We moved into New York State and drove west across the Catskill mountains where autumn colours were pretty in parts but many trees were already bare.
Into Pennsylvania where we spent a couple of nights at Leonard Harrison state park.Called the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania, Pine Creek Gorge was once a major travel route for native Americans, over a 1000ft deep which we walked down and up on our 6 mile hike.

Pine Creek Gorge - the mini Grand Canyon!
