Autumn leaves in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado

Aspen trees are vibrant yellow in the fall, and the tall clusters of white trees create the distinctive sound of the “quaking” leaves. They are the most widespread tree in North America. From the Midwest, across Canada, north into Alaska and across the West through to Arizona and New Mexico, quaking aspens dot the edge of conifer forests in clusters or “clones.”
