by Matt Enquist (Author)

• Hikes to 45 of Colorado's best places to see fall colors
• How to time your hike with peak season
• Where to see aspen groves, cottonwoods, ash, box elder, willows, and alpine tundra

For eight weeks every fall, the trees of Colorado put on a breathtaking display of color. The gold, orange, and red of aspen trees contrast with white, snow-covered mountains and bluebird skies, and temperatures cool off, making fall a magical time to get outdoors. This guidebook offers hikers the best 45 trails in Colorado for noteworthy beauty--without summer's crowds or traffic--along with a sense of adventure.

Many of these hikes will have you saying "Wow!" around every corner as you spy a bright-yellow aspen grove. Others may surprise you with golden cottonwood trees, orange ash or box elder, or red fields of tundra. As a bonus, all of these are great hikes in the spring and summer too. Grab this guide and head to the hills!
