In Winter Park for the weekend, and drove home on Berthoud Pass on Monday. This is not an area that has lots of aspens, but enough to see their colors.
I was noticing that there are some trees that are still green, and others in the same cluster that are already dropping their leaves. Made me wonder if this year's colors aren't as full-blown as other years. Will the green trees turn yellow or not? I'll check them again this Friday!

We just did the drive from Boulder (love love love Boulder)out Canyon Blvd on Highway 119 through Nederland and Black Hawk/Central City toward Golden and the Denver Airport. AMAZING! The canyons, the mountains, the colors were all beautiful. It takes about three hours but soooo worth it.
