usually take a day off to go ride some fall colors. need to figure out proper timing.
A few starting to change in the valleys riding two elks yesterday. Should peak this coming weekend is my prediction.

I bet peak hits next weekend or a few days after at higher elevations. Pretty yellow above 10k in mount Evans wilderness
Was in Aspen over the weekend. Awesome weather, La Plata peak had snow on it, visible coming back over independence pass
