The peak season is here for fall foliage in the Hudson Valley! Anywhere you go, you are getting a glorious view of this beautiful area. To really indulge your imagination in the Hudson Valley, read through the first chapters of Native New Yorkers where the author, Evan T. Pritchard, describes New York City as lush and full of fruit trees, before pavement and buildings. We love pulling photos from our Instagram files, and reached out to each of these sight-seers who shared their photo in their stream. Thanks to these Instagrammers for sharing their visions with their streams and now with A Little Beacon Blog. Each photographer is credited below. Enjoy!

Folks from People's Bicycle riding at Beacon's reservoir.
The Reservoir is quite low, and Beacon is in a Stage 2 Drought Emergency.
The reservoir is at 40% capacity and one well is out of service.
Beaconites are encouraged to reduce water consumption by 20%
