Most likely past peak by a few days..Franconia Notch might be okay, but higher elevations will be past peak.

I agree with loafer89 that 10/11 to 10/15 in Franconia Notch is likely to be past peak based on history. With the cold air coming in this week, I have even more confidence that will be the case

For that time frame, you need to be looking at low elevation, and/or the area from Lincoln south down to the Lakes Region.

Because the Kanc is at higher elevation, you would certainly be past peak there.

I'm also not familiar with Fall foliage in the rest of New Hampshire beyond the northern part. So any recommendations for the rest of New Hampshire I couldn't give. But generally the week of Columbus Day is too late for foliage in alot of Northern New England.
