Steve Kemp from the Great Smoky Mountains Association has posted his latest fall leaf color report on the GSMA website.
Mr. Kemp is reporting that fall colors will likely be peaking a little later than average this year.
His report states that fall colors will be at their peak in 2-3 weeks in many areas of the Smoky Mountain high country (above 4,500'). He also stated that peak colors at the lower elevations are likely to be a month away.

On a related note, TripAdvisor recently published their list of the top ten fall foliage destinations in the U.S. Not surprisingly, Asheville ranked number 1, while Galinburg came in at number 3.
