Convict Lake provided a beautiful backdrop for color spotter Barbara Richter and her BFF as they cruised around the lake in their kayaks. Richter found the colors there to be “interesting.”
“It was calm and beautiful before the clouds rolled in and the wind picked up,” Richter said. “Some of the aspen leaves have already fallen off, some nice yellows but nothing vibrant and some are still green! Such a stunning canyon though!”
As you drive to this location on Convict Lake Rd, you’ll see yellow aspens lining Convict Creek. Once you arrive to Convict Lake, you’ll notice yellows and oranges are starting to show up in patches, with the majority of fall color still on the backside of the lake.
