The Crested Butte - Kebler Pass - Ohio Pass area looks like it should be pretty much at peak this week. Here is Crested Butte on Sunday.

I have not had the chance to post my pictures from this weekend, but these are my observations regarding the colors on our recent trip:

Crested Butte area, Scofield Pass, McClure Pass, Kebler Pass and Ohio Pass: peaking now
Aspen, Maroon Bells area: past peak
Castle Creek: peaking now but on the way out
Independence Pass: peaking now
Mt. Elbert area (Twin Lakes side): past peak

I believe this area would still be in great shape.

Castle Creek from Wed 9/21:

As seen on this webcam though, lots of great color still in Aspen/Snowmass...particularly in town. Should hold a lot through this weekend. Fingers crossed!
