FALL COLOR IN THE MOUNTAINS

Although most locals agree our fall color is not as spectacular as it normally is...which is due to the warmer temperatures.  This is the view we enjoyed our the 'forced march' early this morning.  Nothing wrong with that!!  AND....I'll take the warmer weather!!

A forced march through beautiful terrain is still wonderful...and I'll always vote for warmer weather!

Gorgeous! I didn't hold out much hope for good color in our area because we'd had such a dry summer. But I was wrong. We've been absolutely aglow with the cottonwoods and red and russets abound in what many are saying is our best color in years. And then before the leaves all fell, we got a bunch of snow! It's still piled up out there as the temps dropped into the 30's. Yes, a little early but not unprecedented. I could have gone for another week or two of colorful leaves and taking my walks in just a sweatshirt...
