Default Best Leaf-Peeping Flight?

My Top Two votes:

1. Up the Mississippi River valley from Savannah, IL north to LaCrosse, WI.

With this sudden, early cold snap, the colors in the Midwest have abruptly
changed, and I imagine the flight past the bluffs that mark the confluence
of the Wisconsin and Mississippi Rivers will be even more stunning than in
years past. (I'm hoping to do that flight Sunday afternoon.)

2. Over Lake McBride and the Coralville Reservoir, just a few miles north of
Iowa City.

A heavily wooded area of hills and ravines, the late afternoon sun really
digs deep into the parkland forest, setting off the brilliant colors along
the shoreline.

What's your vote?
