Where is Your Favorite Natural Spot to Take Guests?

We've got family coming for Thanksgiving. They love to hike (they raised us well). And, since they've been visiting us in the DC area for many years, we've taken them to all our favorite hiking spots. So we thought we'd throw the question out there to you: what's your favorite place to take out-of-town guests at this time of year? We'll round up your answers (and our own) in a post in time for Thanksgiving.

Where Do You Go For Fall Foliage?

As the leaves slowly start to turn, we're working on a post about great places in the DC area to look at fall foliage. In the meantime, we want to know: where do you go to look at fall foliage?

Leave us a comment below with your favorite spot(s). Answers can fall into three categories:

a) within the Washington, DC metro area,
b) within day-trip distance of DC, and
c) anywhere else in the world.

Answers in categories A and B may be used as fodder for future posts in The Natural Capital!
