This is a beautiful place to visit in September - the exact time when Aspens start to glow. Make sure you make it down during sunset! The views are incredible.

This was a beautiful hike in early September, right when the colors were starting to change. The view of the valley from Kings Lake is spectacular - especially at sunrise. Make sure to walk up and take a short trip on part of the Continental Divide Trail! Kings Lake was extremely windy and very cold at night, so make sure to bring some warm clothes, gloves, and hot chocolate!
