You will not feel any need to unsee these scenes!! I hope the colors you see on your computer do justice to these!!

Here are a couple of pics of fall colors in the Colorado Rockies! This one is on Kenosha Pass north of Fairplay, CO on US 285 on my ride from Denver to Salida yesterday.



The only way I can describe the scenery today riding from Salida to Delta, CO on SR 92 in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison River is mile after mile after mile of unbelievable, spectacular, and overwhelming display of fall colors. I actually began to feel a sense of visual sensory overload! Now I have a good idea of what John Denver meant with his song "Rocky Mountain High"!!!!



Now it's on to Cortez, CO, then Torrey, UT, and finally on Monday Saint George, UT for Spyders in the Red Rocks!!! :yes:

Beautiful, nothing like the Aspens changing colors. The only thing you missed were the Elk bugling during their Sept mating season just West of Estes Park and into the Rocky Mt. National park. There are literally thousands of Elk there in Sept. mating in the same meadow. All the old bulls protecting there small groups and the younger ones trying to "penetrate" the heard and fight the older bulls into submission. Anyone who has seen this can verifie it is a sight to behold. My parents had a summer cabin there and I worked there 5 summers. Maybe next time!

Autumn my favorite time of year. This year the colors were washed out and not brilliant. The 100 mph wind gusts we had last night took care of most of the leaves. They are pretty much gone now. :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing...I got back from Denver area a couple of weeks ago, having spent a month there...just missed the change.
Have a great trip,

So nice! You are a blessed man! I'm thinking I'm not supposed to "envy" you Fall colors are still several weeks off to our mountains here in upstate SC and the Smokies. I love the ride on the Blueridge Parkway (coming soon). God is an amazing artist! Enjoy.

Here's another pic. This has the fall colors contrasted behind by the snow that fell around Telluride last night. This is along Hwy 62 between Ridgway and the turn off to Telluride.
