Made it up the Poudre Canyon yesterday and loved what I saw. The high country trees are turning colors and all around me leaves are fluttering to the ground. While enjoying it up there I realized I have not been camping in over 5 years. I think it’s about time. I checked on a couple of campgrounds and noticed they will closing on September 30th so I’m heading up there today for a couple nights of camping. The weather is suppose to be nice. See ya in a few.

You go, Monte…watch for bears! 🙂
Lovely photos…I could sit by a fire and watch these scenes for a long time.

I did go but had to come back. I was also surprised at how many bear warnings there were. Almost every campground above 9,000 feet had warning signs. It is also bowhunting season so I did see a few hunters. I will post a few images over the next couple of days.

I definitely need to get out there and see those Aspen. Soon, I hope! 🙂 That’s going to be a very nice scene once those leaves explode.

Colorado is know for its aspen colors but we also have other trees that show beautiful colors in the Fall. In fact most of the trees in the top image are not aspens. Along the Poudre River you will find cottonwoods, varieties of willows, boxelder, alders, and elm trees. And, yes you must put a trip out to see the aspen colors on your bucket list.
