    Sep 25 2024
    In this episode of "Travel is Back," Journey Joe Mitchell takes listeners on a virtual fall road trip across some of the most stunning destinations to explore in October 2024. Joe kicks things off with New England’s iconic autumn landscapes, from the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire to the charming town of Stowe, Vermont, complete with apple-picking and breathtaking mountain views. He then ventures to the hidden beauty of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, highlighting the mesmerizing colors of Porcupine Mountains and Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

    Next up is Colorado, where Joe explores the San Juan Skyway, the Million Dollar Highway, and the unforgettable vistas from Telluride’s gondola. Wrapping up, he uncovers the lesser-known fall splendor of California’s Eastern Sierra, including the surreal Mono Lake and the cozy natural hot springs of Mammoth Lakes.

    Throughout, Joe reminds listeners that the magic of autumn travel is as much about the journey as the destination, encouraging everyone to find beauty close to home too.
