Best times are when the trails are open. Most places are closed in winter. I typically visit between spring and late fall before the heavy snowfall. The falls are really beautiful to look at and the hikes are worth it.
This week highs around 50, lows at freezing. Rain New Year's day. Watch for black ice at night and early morning.
If you can handle driving in snowy conditions.
