Originally the location for a summer camp by Ute Indians, then a mining camp called Columbia, Telluride became a town in 1878. This remote town in the San Juan Mountains became part of the National Historic Landmark District in 1964, and later became a destination ski resort. There are many year-round activities to enjoy in the beautiful surroundings of the mountains, and after only one visit to Telluride, it will become a part of you forever.

Welcome to my blog! I live in beautiful Telluride, Colorado with my husband and three kids. I started blogging for family and friends to keep up with what we have been doing and it has kind of turned into an on-line diary for myself also full of my favorite photos.

That is so interesting. I wonder why the difference; why some change right away and others take much longer? Maybe the difference is due to altitude?
I guess they like to take their time. Maybe they are saving the best for last!
We've had a lot of rain in September, so maybe that is making the green stay around longer.
My experience with Telluride "leaves" is the peak is around the first week of October.
2004 was a good year. http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelmowerymedia/sets/72157605943095038/
Looking at the dates, the most dramatic ones were around that week.
Always, enjoyed your photos Lisa....
Those photos are amazing! Thanks for posting the link!
Maybe they are waiting for their Last Dollar? hehe!
Beautiful road. I'd like to just ride a horse down it as the aspens change color to yellow and begin to flutter in the cool winds.

It's lovely to know an area so well that you notice the progress of individual trees towards autumn.
