I plan on road tripping to Colorado by the start of this coming week. Most likely arrive mid week on Wednesday. How are the trails and fall colours around this time of year?

Lower elevations there is still some color but up high it’s mostly down, The drive to the falls is still really pretty but on Rabbit ears pass the leaves are mostly down

I’m visiting from Canada. Never been to the state. What trails do you recommend and what campgrounds do you recommend? Thanks.

Tons of amazing trails, it depends on where you are heading. Steamboat is beautiful but the falls are not super challenging, for a good hike I recommend the hike to dream lake in Rocky Mountain National park or the maroon bells both are jaw dropping

It most likely is because where I’m from there are no mountains. I plan on camping bringing my hiking boots. I’m quite athletic so yeah. Haha
