Would like to camp from the middle of September to the first part of October. Would like your opinion on the timing of our trip. Is this a time to see the trees change color and more snow? Thinking of camping in the Buena Vista and South Fork areas. Thanks for your advice.
IMHO you've got the time right - The Collegiates will be great - Cottonwood pass or Independence Pass are good for that area. If time is available we have enjoyed the drive o RT 24 from Minturn/Red Cliff/Camp Hale/Leadville just some great color and Large fields of Aspen.
You might just look at this these shots are in the San Juan's Western side but you will notice the progression of color and the touches of Snow.
I missed the Aspen for 15 years and finally figured it out - 21st through the 5th are usually right in the Heart of the color.
Best of Luck - Take Thousands of Images as they change with every shot.
