How are the aspens along Peak-to-Peak?

I did the peak-to-peak road a couple of weeks ago and the aspens were definitely looking pretty gold.

Lots of traffic congestion though so leave yourself time.

Lots of gold in Glenwood canyon. And traffic.

I was up at Meeker Park Lodge and Johnny Park road on Wednesday evening this week and the color was exceptional. I think this weekend is probably the peak if it wasn?t earlier this week.

We will go up! Thanks for the info!

I drove from Estes to Central City on Saturday and they were pretty good. Although you can see areas were either dry conditions or the early frost has effected them.

We had a few nights of wicked wind too. It knocked off a lot of leaves.

The cottonwoods behind my house are at their peak - but, the wind is taking its toll.
My aspens turned gold, then brown, then the leaves were blown off all this week.
Lots of raking ahead, but it is year round with the cottonwoods.
