This spot has been a good subject for ICM because of the white vertical lines and surrounding color

You get two seasons for the price of one. Dixie National Forest near Cedar City, Utah, received a few inches of fresh snow the other day on top of the autumn colors already present. The elevation at this spot is around 8 to 9,000 feet and the temperature was 39 degrees F at midday.

It’s a mystery to me why some Aspens have full color and Aspens nearby have already lost their leaves but that’s nature. Filmed from above at the Kaibab National Forest in Northern Arizona.

Back To The Future

Arizona, Grand Canyon, National Parks, Photography, Seasons, video

A drive through. the Kaibab National Forest and North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park reveals new growth Aspen trees, old growth and recently fire-damaged in the park. The young Aspens at beginning of video grew after a fire there some 20 years ago. Lots of the old growth were not damaged but the Aspens inside the park were heavily damaged along with pines. The Aspens should start to bounce back in a few years and eventually look like the young Aspens at the start of this video in about 20 years.

A shout out to all those firefighters that fought to contain the devastating fire which also claimed the 100 year old Grand Canyon Lodge.

Cottonwood Trees thrive near rivers and lakes because they absorb lots of water. If we have normal rainfall that year, we’ll see lots ofCottonwoods in full color during autumn . Here I captured the colors via drone. Watch in HiDef at Full Screen. Music is aptly named “Fly Me Away” by Goldfrapp.
