Fall in Colorado
It’s still a bit early for the true autumn glory in our part of the rocky mountains, but last weekend Mark and I drove up to Pingree Park looking for some great fall colors. And we weren’t disappointed.
The poudre canyon was still very green in the second-to-last weekend of September, but as we climbed to higher altitudes we saw more and more color.
We stopped a long the way for a little bit of hiking. As hunting season has recently started, Liv wore her “Please don’t shoot my dog” orange safety vest on the trail. At eight months pregnant, I’m actually feeling better (relatively) than I did in the first few months! But, I get winded when hiking up hill very quickly, and it’s rough not being able to take a full breath any more.
It was a very nice afternoon, though, and I’m looking forward to making some more great pictures as the season continues!
We have a little aspen gold going on. I saw a facebook photo of the Western slope near Snowmass that is eactly what I hope to see in a week or two. Perhaps we will do another outing this Sunday.
I found your blog via Enjoy Fort Collins. Your photography is absolutely stunning! I was in RMNP park last week, and saw the Aspens at higher elevations turn yellow almost overnight.
