Aspen paint the mountains in shades of yellow

October 1, 2015 by Tony Leave a Comment

The fall foliage in Colorado’s high country is at its peak right now and absolutely resplendent in bright color. If you live here and want to see this year’s show you need to go ASAP. A cold front will be arriving tomorrow and that is going to drop temperatures and bring some precipitation. Snow levels could drop to 10,000 feet above which a few inches are possible. With conditions like that, an abrupt end to the mountain leaf peeping season can be expected.

Scroll down to view the complete gallery of images from this past weekend’s fall colors in Rocky Mountain National Park.
