A little late on the fall colors but still some nice textures and colors to be had. Trail is a bit difficult to follow as there are many. I ended up taking a different way back. Bumper crop of apples this year, some are pretty tasty though most have added protein. I made it 3.5 miles up the canyon then turned around. Followed orange blazes for the last mile or so. Creek is very low so not much trouble crossing. Aspen groves were good spots to see woodpeckers. Both Hairy and Downy. It was pretty cold when I started out but when the sun had time to heat things up, the snakes came out. I only saw one but others saw a couple more.
PS. I may have lost a Black Diamond hiking pole along the trail. Would love to get it back! Thanks!

Great Rattlesnake pic. Assuming you used a telephoto.
