Anyone who has enjoyed autumn in Maine knows that when it comes to foliage, the Pine Tree State really knows how to roll out the red carpet. Maple, oak, and birch leaves that provided welcome shade just a few weeks earlier erupt in a barrage of color, eventually cascading onto summer-worn lawns and pathways like confetti at a Hollywood premiere. To assist travelers who make the pilgrimage to Maine as eagerly as paparazzi to Cannes, the editors of Down East have put together a guide to making the most of the state's awesome autumnal performance. Whether you're a fan of high-flying adventure films, spaghetti Westerns, or coming-of-age dramas, this Maine program is sure to keep you captivated this leaf season.
