What to pack

What September feels like

The aspens turn from the top down, and the closing stretch of the month is why people book a year ahead; Castle Creek Road and the Bells are the classic drives. Freezing nights come back this month, so mornings bite even when the afternoon is shirtsleeve weather.

Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around.
