Every year millions of people travel to the New England area to experience the breathtaking fall colors all across the region. These fall tourists are known locally as 'leaf peepers,' and they fuel a multi-billion dollar tourism industry annually. While this influx of visitors provides a welcome economic boost to the region it is not without it's challenges-particularly for rural areas where the the infrastructure and public safety resources can be stretched beyond capacity.
