Uinta Fall colors riding 09/28/25

I figured that that last weekend may be the height of the full fall colors up in the Uinta mountains, so I packed up Bugz Beta and headed south for a day of frenzied shutter clicking. The mountains did not disappoint, and the weather was perfect, with a mixture of sun and storm clouds and balmy temperatures.

Ohh the fall colors look so beautiful!  Thanks for sharing.  Wishing I could be out there enjoying the views in person.

Boy you sure nailed it!  There's something very special to me about riding the peak of the color change.  It really puts a stamp on the change of seasons.  The cool air, the rustling of the leaves, the visual splendor.  I love it.  I just missed it this year, as I was a good two weeks early in Ouray. And Idaho doesn't put up much of a show after that.  By the time I headed south from  Sandpoint ID the color peak was over (in CO) so came down the coast instead.

I would love to get up into your neck of the woods and ride but it seems I'm always elsewhere during the season.  Nice pics Mimi, thanks for sharing.

Great pix and ride !

Mimi, are many of those trails just dirt roads that might be doable with our sidecar rig ?

There are a lot of big wide road routes up in the Uintas, but a lot of the stuff I was riding is for vehicles that are 50 inches wide or less.  And I know that there is a lot of smooth areas showing in the shots I took, but there are also a lot of steep hills, rocks and hairpin turns (sometimes all combined).  There's something for everyone, except single track.  I haven't found any real single track routes up there, but the two track ATV stuff is just as good.  I have never encountered an ATV on any of it.
