The entire state seems to erupt in gold and yellow due to the millions of aspen trees that grow in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, so it\u2019s hard to pick just one place to visit. However, Aspen, Telluride, and Crested Butte in Colorado all stand out, due to the number of aspens, and the incredible mountains that are in these areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s hard to put into words how magical photographing fall season is in these three ski towns. From scenic mountain drives, to beautiful hikes that take you through and above massive aspen groves, to simply looking out your hotel window, the opportunities are seemingly endless. Fall in these three towns is beyond worth it. Just remember that while the fall season in Colorado is amazing, it is also very short, lasting around two weeks or less, depending on the elevation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fall foliage peak season: Mid to late September&nbsp;<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60846\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60846\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-60846\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/grand-teton-national-park-tim-peterson-8QaBT4wmDgI-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming\" width=\"1000\" height=\"652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/grand-teton-national-park-tim-peterson-8QaBT4wmDgI-unsplash.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/grand-teton-national-park-tim-peterson-8QaBT4wmDgI-unsplash-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/grand-teton-national-park-tim-peterson-8QaBT4wmDgI-unsplash-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-60846\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@stp_com?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Tim Peterson<\/a>&nbsp;on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><b>Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just when you thought the Tetons couldn\u2019t get anymore beautiful, fall arrives.
