I had never been to Aspen for the fall until 2019.  The colors of all the Aspens changing around us throughout the forest made it very hard to focus on any one aspect of all the beauty surrounding us.  As we continued through the woods we came to an area of the trail where the leaves started to scatter on the forest floor.  The peaks could be seen in the distance with the lights and shadows dancing on them.  The yellow leaves lead us to the lake we were hiking to just beyond the forest and helped captivate us to continue down the yellow leaf road.
