Drive to Black Mountain

The colors were about gone, some had never happened, due to a "blight" on the aspen trees. They lost their leaves before they changed color. I like this picture with the on the hill in the background.
The aspens here are just getting some color.

As we got higher on the mountain, into the thick trees, snow. Before long it will be deep enough that only 4-wheel drives will be able to get in here. The hunters were already setting up camp for this weekend season.

Our leaves haven't really started turning yet. Have a great week-end.
