After spending some time in southern Wyoming, we moved into Colorado for a few weeks. Since travelogues in recent years have featured much of that area, I will be more selective and highlight only areas that haven't received much attention lately.
The area around Crested Butte had just gotten its first significant snow of the season, making some of the views special for me.

On our way to Aspen, a stop at Twin Lakes provided the scenery we expected, but also the unexpected pleasure of meeting Jerry Seinfeld, who was there participating in a rally of antique cars.
In Aspen, the views of the Maroon Bells were spectacular.
In Creede, fall colors were in full swing, and both North and South Clear Creek Falls were flowing nicely.
Lake City had some pretty nice color, as well.
Sand Dunes National Park is not well known or highly visited, but it does have some of the largest dunes in the country, up to 700 feet high. And, the wildflowers were in full bloom while we were there.
