Title: Best time for fall color in Zion NP
Post by: praja343 on August 29, 2019, 11:25:48 am

Hello:
I am thinking of a fall trip to Zion, Canyonlands and Capitol Reef. Any suggestions for the best time to visit for fall colors there?
Thanks in advance,
PR

At Zion, the maples turn red first, then the cottonwood turn yellow after that. Occasionally there is an overlap when both happen at once, but that is rare. Like most places, there is a variation from year to year, but in general, the first week of November is a good bet for peak cottonwood color in the park.
