Aspens flank the river, and I have made the 80 mile round-trip three times to try and catch the trees in their fall colors.  I haven't succeeded yet, but I will make one more trip to try and do so.

As impressive is the sheer scale of the scenery.  This vertical shot shows the photo that I can't wait to take.  It shows the really the four layers of texture and color that will make this photo...the stone, the small aspen, larger aspen and maple, and then a vertical slope of conifers.  Hopefully soon...I can't help but imagine this in color, printed as a 16X20 or larger.
