I drove by this weekend, didn't even see the first sign of any color change. Was also up on Humphrey's last weekend nothing up there either.

Update..Aspens in Lockett Meadow may be past prime, but others in Hart's Prarie may last two more weeks, if weather remains stable; Sedona starting slowly in upper West Fork area, but not much yet. Got info from ranger at Red Rock State park.

Anybody know of any prime Fall color spots for this weekend? Sedona perhaps? Pinal Mtns? Payson? Anything?

I read reports that the Kaibab National Forest is done.

Southern Utah, will have wonderful colors over the next two-three weeks. Once overnights are hitting thirty or less, the trees will be getting it together.

We were in Sedona/Prescott for a 4 day weekend. Be prepared for the crowds anywhere you go in Sedona. Prescott was more quiet but not much for colors, except for some spots around Mingus Mountain.

I went to West Fork Saturday, and it was pretty colorful. I put some pictures on my Yahoo photo's. I will attach the link and hopefully it will work.
