The following table tracks the progress of the fall colours in Québec’s various tourist regions. This coloration varies not only according to plant species, but also to geographic location—particularly latitude—and sunlight. The percentage indicated corresponds to the approximate area covered by the fall colours; the remainder represents all the shades of green or brown. And while gusts of wind may strip the boughs bare, there’s nothing quite like walking over a carpet of gold, red and yellow!
