When Beech Mountain peaks
October 3–13
Predicted peak window, fall 2026
Beech Mountain sits at 5,436 feet, the first ground in the High Country to turn, usually while the valleys are still green. Peak color reaches 5,000 feet around October 6, 2026, then slides about 6.5 days later for every 1,000 feet it descends, which puts Beech Mountain about 3 days ahead of the 5,000 foot ridges.
September ran 2.7°F warmer than Beech Mountain's own normal, which moved the window 4.8 days later. Warm autumns delay the shutdown that lets the color show. Cold ones hurry it along.
A peak window is a claim about October, so it gets graded like every other forecast here. Once the leaves actually turn we score these dates against the published fall color reports and the result goes on the board, flattering or not. This is the model's first live fall, so read the window as a first attempt with its work shown, not a settled number. Every town's window, and how the model gets a date.
