This is a tip that more people should listen to! For example, take the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway in NC and VA. People come from far and wide each fall to see the beautiful fall foliage, and the resulting traffic can be a real nightmare. Most of these leaf-looking motorists will spend more time looking at the taillights of the car in front of them than they will enjoying the main attraction.

In the summertime, this gorgeous mountain roadway is largely ignored by most people looking for a tourist destination, which creates a haven for folks who desire mid-summer temperatures that are normally 10-15 degrees cooler than the surrounding areas (because of the elevation), a quiet and uncrowded view of the beautiful mountain vistas, wild animals, and wild flowers.

And as an added bonus for these off-peak travelers, they will save fuel and reduce emissions by not sitting in traffic waiting for all of the other tourists to do their touring!
