I went out to inspect the aspens "down canyon" in June Lake around 6:30pm September 2nd, and was shocked to find red added to the few yellow leaves! There isn't much red yet, but it is just so special to catch the first glimpse of fall! Below are some photos to give you an idea of what is and is not popping as of the beginning of September this year!
Additionally, a friend and I hiked to Yost and Fern lakes on Labor Day, and the aspens were really changing to brilliant yellow up at the top!

| Okay, not really a photo of aspens, but Carson Peak is just so stoic there in the background! |
 |
| Is that a little red and orange I see? |
 |
This photo was taken across from the parking at Silver Lake,
before the Silver Lake Resort. |
 |
| A slightly blurry, but zoomed photo of red/orange. |
 |
| Some stands of aspen have not really started to change at all. |
 |
| At the Rush Creek trailhead, there was little color change, but a lot of Mule Deer! |
 |
| Grant Lake has gotten really low! This gives you an idea of a dry year, huh? |
 |
| At the channel entrance of Grant Lake a few colors were changing. |
