Aspen Going Gold

As the nights get noticeably cooler the aspen go to gold.

015

Yet the days are comfortably mild.

019

Fall is in the air, and there’s no looking back.

035

The aspen slowly turn away from green.

Aspen Gold

01 Aspen turning along Hwy 67 N GRCA NP AZ (1024x763)

The forest is turning to gold. At least the Aspen are. Last week’s few cool nights down into the low 30s F have triggered the trees. This photo was taken on Monday. I need to get out in the forest.

Hi I’m Gaelyn, the Geogypsy

I started exploring US National Parks in 1977 and 20 years later became a Park Ranger. Every world-wide designated landscape and historic site within the systems of preservation has a unique story about people and place. I'd like to share some of those stories with you. Let’s travel, and learn.

Currently at North Rim Grand Canyon National Park.
