UPDATED!!! Ohio Route 555/26, October 20th 2013: Fall Colors Meet!!
Alright, as promised guys, here is the thread to organize and coordinate a trip down through Southeast Ohio during what will hopefully be peak color! As much fun was had during the July drive, this one will be cooler and a lot more colorful (both from a car and tree standpoint).
As of this point, I would like to meet up on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20th. SINCE THE WEATHER IS FORECAST TO BE IFFY, AS PROMISED, WE ARE RAIN CHECKING TO SUNDAY So, based on the trip I took with the Ohioscions.com group, here is what I am thinking: Meet up at Salt Fork State Park, at the Lodge around 11 AM. Pack a lunch, I don't know if the lodge has any concessions to speak of. We depart and head down to Route 26: Salt Fork State Park to Marietta, OH This is the part of the route that will be more picturesque, as well as covering a few of the more scenic covered bridges. Then we head along the river for a short bit (a slight break), and pick up OH Route 555 up to Zanesville: CORRECTED OH 555 MAP We can always take a break between Marietta and the southern point of 555, we can decide on the road. Total time from Salt Fork will be about 3-4 hours, depending on traffic. Plan for a full day of fun! EDIT: THE FULL ROUTE FOR THE DAY!

I am thinking that this will be a spirited, but safe drive. We won't exactly be canyon carving, but there's no reason we can't have fun
So, things to bring: -Camera -Sunscreen (if you are bringing a convertible) -2-way radios (I have two, more are welcome) -Snacks (if you will be able to eat them) -Your car (doesn't have to be one of the twins!) Before I start a list of people attending, lets settle on the date. And while I have no intent on excluding anyone outside of the club, lets see how many want to attend before we start throwing out invites willy-nilly. I don't want this to get too big. |

I need to read more closely, thats actually *NOT* the correct route. You missed 555 completely.
EDIT: kseroski, try using the corrected 555 map, that is going in the correct direction now. EDIT AGAIN: Full map, corrected: [ame="https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Unknown+road&daddr=39.6663106,-81.1727885+to:39.5328234,-81.2285112+to:Greene+St+to:OH-32+W%2FOH-7+S%2FUS-50+W%2FJames+A.+Rhodes+Appalachian+Hwy+to:39.55785 95,-81.9574582+to:Old+River+Rd&hl=en&ll=39.696621,-81.5625&spn=1.502536,2.139587&sll=39.721976,-81.57074&sspn=1.501984,2.139587&geocode=Fef6YwIdRP 4j-w%3BFYZCXQIdzGYp-ylfbtKBGCA2iDF7bqPv7WntEw%3BFRc5WwIdIY0o-yn1DddlZ9xJiDEZI3SVG2frIQ%3BFSZtWQIdykIl-w%3BFfVBVwIdCn4h-w%3BFeOaWwIdrm0d-ykfBdaAHhpIiDF27mvnYZOqyA%3BFYx2YAIdPg8d-w&t=h&mra=ls&via=1,2,5&z=9"]https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Unknown+road&daddr=39.6663106,-81.1727885+to:39.5328234,-81.2285112+to:Greene+St+to:OH-32+W%2FOH-7+S%2FUS-50+W%2FJames+A.+Rhodes+Appalachian+Hwy+to:39.55785 95,-81.9574582+to:Old+River+Rd&hl=en&ll=39.696621,-81.5625&spn=1.502536,2.139587&sll=39.721976,-81.57074&sspn=1.501984,2.139587&geocode=Fef6YwIdRP 4j-w%3BFYZCXQIdzGYp-ylfbtKBGCA2iDF7bqPv7WntEw%3BFRc5WwIdIY0o-yn1DddlZ9xJiDEZI3SVG2frIQ%3BFSZtWQIdykIl-w%3BFfVBVwIdCn4h-w%3BFeOaWwIdrm0d-ykfBdaAHhpIiDF27mvnYZOqyA%3BFYx2YAIdPg8d-w&t=h&mra=ls&via=1,2,5&z=9[/ame]

My son and I will be heading down to do RT26 in the next week or two so I may opt to do the New York Bear Mountain event in October. On the other hand, I would save a ton of money by just going down south with you guys. Decisions-Decisions!
