The colors of the aspen leaves depend on the weather earlier in the year. This year we have some rare orange in addition to the usual bright yellow. These pictures are from the Estes Park newspaper.
For contrast, here is Trail Ridge Road, which is above the timber line. They will close it for the winter when the snow piles up deep.

What beautiful photographs! So inspiring!
That is so pretty and colorful. It is cooler here than in Colorado right now. Strange weather. It used to be hot through October and freeze on Halloween.
Superb scenery! Truly beautiful
Nice! You have to look hard to see red around here!

So beautiful! The trees around here haven't changed that much yet.
