In the past I've tried to catch at least one climb in the White's during folliage season. It's been a few years, though, since I've actually done it. I figure the next few weeks should be the best time. When I worked in the Green mtns on the Sugarbush G.C., I remember seeing snow around this date in Sept. I also remember the folliage peaking only through about 6 days. Consequently, I think the exact dates to plan on hiking would be of interest here.
