Description
What an amazing landscape vista before me as I approach Telluride, Colorado from Lizard Head Pass Wilderness area on Colorado's Western Slope.
Peak of the Season, between the 3rd week of September and the 1st week of October, dependent on weather and altitude.
The month of September is the ideal time to witness a gilded aspen spectacle on a scenic drive, but you have to time it right: The color lasts only about a week in most places. It's difficult to predict when exactly the leaves will turn in any given location. The best strategy is select travel dates in advance, but not destinations. Then go wherever the color is. Here are a few road-tripping routes, sorted by region, that have become fall-color pilgrimages for aspen lovers:
Southwest Colorado Fall-Color Drives
Dallas Divide and Lizard Head Pass: Begin your journey in the town of Ridgway. Head west on Colorado 62 over Dallas Divide. Lining the route are unimpeded views of the Sneffels Range, an apron of aspens at its feet. At Placerville, head southeast toward Telluride on Colorado 145. All the way to Lizard Head Pass you�ll drive through dense groves of white-barked aspens with panoramas of Wilson Peak.
