Colorado's Changing Colors
September is a month for winding down the summer and getting ready for the wonderful fall that we have here in Colorado. The leaves will be changing to beautiful yellows, and reds, and orange colors very soon.
Aspen trees are some of the most beautiful trees in Colorado. You can see patches of them in the mountains as you travel to the Rocky Mountain National Park. Their brilliant yellow coloring splashes the roadways and bike/walking trails from September to October. Poudre Canyon has some amazing bike trails as well as these other five trails. 
Colorado also has the pleasure of oak and maple trees. Usually, these types of trees have gorgeous scarlet, crimson, and ruby hues. The pigment in the tree plays a key role in getting the trees ready for the spring. The chemical in the leaf act as a sunscreen, protecting leaves, especially evergreen trees. With Colorado's 360 days of sun, the trees need as much sunscreen as they can get. The red color can also serve to ward off insects and bugs. Some insects laying eggs in the fall may seek other, weaker trees for their offspring.
The crisp cool changes in temperature during the fall start the food-making process of the leaves. The length of daylight also has a bearing on the colors changing. The chlorophyll breaks down, the green color disappears, and the yellow to orange colors become move visible and give leaves the part of their fall splendor.
Hiking and biking on one of Colorado's most treasured activities. What better way to get outside and discover the beautiful splendor of the fall in the Rockies.
