What September feels like
September is what locals hold out for: everyone goes home after Labor Day and the aspens up Hope Valley begin turning toward the end of the month. Camping gets serious about layers — the frost comes back early up here.
Real rain shows up maybe one day all month; the rest stay dry. about 10 nights dip below freezing.
