Fall Color In Colorado 2013


Does anyone who is familiar with Colorado know anything about what to expect this year? Based on experience, can anyone predict what kind of fall color will we have? I know it is a crap shoot but I thought I would ask anyway. Thanks,

Harriet Feagin

  I haven't heard any predictions yet, but I saw some yellow spots in the high country last week. It will probably be a few more weeks until it peaks. This can be a good link for you:

U.S. Forest Service's hotline isn't updated yet for fall colors.
Maybe someone else has better information to bring to you!

  I found this link too:

http://www.parks.state.co.us/ParksSearch/Pages/ParksSearch.phpx

Per their website.....Basically, click on the Colorado map at the locale you want. Select the Conditions tab, check the 'Fall Colors' box, and search. Each park will provide tips on what the colors in their park look like."

  Thank you, Ken. You have been so much help! If you ever plan on going to Colorado again, I would recommend a guide book written by Andy Cook. He guides photo workshops and I have been on two of his workshops (Tetons and Tennessee). His book is very, very good. With your guide and his, I am getting a good idea of where to go and what time is best. Thanks again.

  Thanks, Harriet. Here's another book...an e-book, that looked pretty interesting:

I'm sure we'd all love to have a similar photo as on the cover of his book.

  John Fielder's Best of Colorado has also been a very helpful book for me.
