Possible Routes
I will use this page to keep ideas for possible routes to take on our trip. Many include routes from websites for Fall Foliage drives. We may alter these once on the road based on weather.
From Home to Peaks of Otter Lodge on the Blue Ridge Parkway
This map was hard to create because it kept trying to get the shortest route which is not on the Blue Ridge Parkway. I had to put some interesting waypoints in to get it to stay, which it changes back after uploading.

Shenandoah National Park to the Poconos
From the Poconos to Manchester, VT
This route includes a stop at Taconic State Park in New York to see Bish Bash Fall, the highest falls in Massachusetts. Originally this was on the end of our trip so we could leave this off depending on time and weather.
