Two New England Foliage Destinations Make List Of 'Best Places For Fall Colors'
BOSTON (CBS) -- It's one of the most special times of year in New England - foliage season. The vibrant fall colors typically attract tourists from all over the world to the northeast.
USA Today recently compiled the best places around the United States for leaf-peepers to visit, and readers voted for their favorites. And two spots finishing high on the list are just a drive away.
Coming in sixth place was Stowe, Vermont.
"For the best leaf peeping, make the drive along the Green Mountain Byway between the towns of Waterbury and Stowe," the ranking states. "Mount Mansfield, the state's highest peak, sits along the way."
