It’s time to mine the gold in the mountains! No, we aren’t heading to the gold mines of Colorado, we are talking about the fall colors for the aspen turning in the autumn brisk air. One of the best locations so far this year has been the aptly named Oro Grande Trail which happens to be just behind our place in Dillon, Colorado. This trail contours along the ridge just to the east of Dillon Lake, so the views of the lake, the Gore Range, and of course the aspen are spectacular. As usual, we will let the pictures and captions speak for themselves which include a snippet of artsy historical photos to whet your appetite.
Later in the season we will post a “Best of Fall Colors” blog to pull together more of the auric autumn. As usual, leave your comments below. Enjoy

Looks like the fall colors are ahead of us in Iowa. Very pretty.
