This Hickory Tussock Moth Caterpillar (white caterpillar) will eventually metamorphose into a Lophocampa caryae...or the hickory tiger moth.
If curious, check out PennState Extension or you can learn a bit more info from Wikipedia.
These caterpillars are very apparent in the fall. If you have sensitive skin, beware...the hairs may irritate the skin.
