Ski Southeast Messageboard

Long Lake and Lake Isabelle, to be more exact. There aren't many aspens up in the Indian Peaks Wilderness so it's not a popular fall destination for the tourists- however, it certainly does not lack in fall colors. The underbrush, bushes, and grasses were going off this weekend with all kinds of reds, yellows, and oranges. It was a perfect contrast to the deep blue skies and the mountain views that tower above the lakes.



This is Round One because I've got a nice little 3-day weekend trip planned for this coming Fri-Sun, touring the Aspen, Crested Butte, and Ridgway areas for another set of fall color pictures. Stay tuned.



Here are a handful of shots from the morning:





















































And finally, my hiking partners for the day:

Beautiful! The fall colors are so pretty. Looking forward to seeing more pics from your next trip.
