Agree with Gary Anderson.  I live in Harrisonburg and usually Skyline Drive
is pretty nice.  Avoid the weekends and holidays (like today) in the Fall
and you should be fine.  I took some visitors up there during the week days
last week and the traffic was light.   There were arts and crafts festivals
in both Crozet and Waynesboro last Sat & Sun and I am certain that added to
the congestion.  Next weekend (Oct 15-16) will probably be terrible since
that is a weekend projected to be during some of the peak color.
