Fort Valley Road

Brief Glimpses of Autumn in Fort Valley, Virginia by Todd Henson

The Colors of Passage Creek

On October 25th, 2025, my father and I went for a drive through Fort Valley, Virginia, to see any of the fall foliage still hanging around. It was a challenging day, exposure-wise, because of the blazingly bright sun and the shadows of the mountains, but I did the best I could to balance the two so you could see a bit of the beauty present in that valley, especially along Passage Creek.

We entered the valley on Fort Valley Road and this time instead of trying one of the winding narrow one-lane dirt roads we chose to leave the valley via the winding but paved two-lane Edinburg Gap Road. Maybe not quite as exciting as the others, but a bit less stressful. 🙂
