Searching for Fall Colors in Yellowstone

Having been on the road for almost a week and knowing that it was peak fall color season in the upper Midwest we were getting a little homesick for some fall color. Unfortunately Yellowstone does not offer a lot in the way of colors. Most of the trees are pine.

We did find some spectacular fall colors in the Lamar Valley. The Cottonwoods along the river were just past their peak and there were a few Aspen turning color.

There was also some nice color in the grass and brush.

We also found some nice color in the hills just south of Mammoth Hot Springs. These were mainly Aspen.

More photos from Yellowstone National Park can be found on my website.
