Aspenglow
My first trip to Colorado in September 2017 was a doozy. Ethan had been summoned to Boulder for work and this time it worked for me to tag along, so of course he spun it off into a massive parks trip!
We began in Boulder and eventually went as far south as the Black Canyon. We hit three national parks — Rocky Mountain, Great Sand Dunes, and Black Canyon of the Gunnison — drove hundreds of miles, experienced freezing temps and starry skies, and got hit with headaches from being dehydrated lowlanders in the land of high elevation
We had mostly great weather and were able to do everything we planned. But best of all, it just so happened the aspen trees were at peak color. I swooned and swooned. Here are some of my favorite aspen pictures from that trip.
