ARIZONA (AZ) AUTUMN LEAVES
Leaf-Lookers Guide

Arizona's Coconino National Forest is a very popular destination for Arizona leaf-lookers.  The season for autumn leaves starts early, usually mid September, and the roads and other byways get very crowded. The Aspens start the symphony of color up on the higher slopes. Then, as the calendar progresses, the gold of the Aspens is gradually replaced lower down by the brilliant crimson of the sumacs and maples.

Here are some suggested routings to best view Arizona's Autumn Leaves:
