  • October is one of those very special months of the year when there is so much to see. There are golden aspen leaves, snow covered mountains, and bugling elk. However, it is a transition month when this area moves from autumn to winter. Learn what you need to know in order to have the very best experience.

    We’re planning to be there October 10-13…how should we pack and how will the foliage be? TIA!

      Josephine, be sure to pack some warmer clothing as it can get quite cool and even cold then. You are likely to see aspen in the lowest parts of the park and around the town of Estes Park. The higher elevations will have lost their leaves. However, every year is a bit different.

    Very helpful! I have been trying to get out there and hope to make it next week. A little late, I know. Maybe a drive at lower elevations on the south end will still have some fall colors. We are getting a freeze this weekend in eastern high plains this weekend... I just hope it isn't too late.

      Thanks for letting me know that it was helpful. I'm hopeful that there will still be some great color next week, especially in the lower meadows especially in the EndoValley and around Estes Park.

    Just read one of your books, despite your advice to read one page each day, in one sitting. So good. The Journey Beyond. I also bought Whispers in the Wilderness. It's next in line :)

    Is October 13-15th too late to watch foliage? We are planning for Rocky mountain np

    • @ErikStensland
      @ErikStensland  11 місяців тому

      It’s really winding down by then, but if the wind behaves there should still be some color in the lower elevations and around the town of Estes Park.
