Map The density of Sugar Maples almost exactly lines up with the places that are commonly said to have the best fall colors
The Upper Pensula and Northwoods, Adirondacks and northern New England, the Ohio valley and Appalachia. All of these places are commonly said to have the best fall colors in the country, and those regions are also where the highest density of sugar maples are.
One of the best trees in the world, simply stunning in fall.
