Golden larch season brings a tourism boost to Methow Valley

Original: Golden ‘larch madness’ means green for tourism-starved Methow Valley economy

The Methow Valley in Washington State is seeing an economic lift from 'larch madness', the annual autumn spectacle when golden larches draw visitors to the North Cascades. Local businesses, hit hard by recent wildfires and smoke that kept tourists away, are welcoming the influx of leaf-peepers as a much-needed source of revenue.

Why now: The seasonal golden larch display is drawing crowds that are helping the tourism-dependent valley recover economically.
