"Covering 84 miles in northern New Mexico and circling Wheeler Peak, the Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway reaches high elevations, so I encountered cooler temperatures and rapidly changing weather conditions; to see peak fall foliage, now is the best time to visit." - Taryn White Taryn White Taryn White is a D.C.-based travel writer who covers a wide range of topics, including family travel, hotels, food, aviation, beaches, historical and cultural topics, and wellness travel.
