Best season: fall. Fall offers the best combination of comfortable daytime temperatures, dramatic light on the hoodoos, and far smaller crowds than high summer — perfect for photography, hiking, and stargazing. Expect daytime highs in the 50s–60s°F (10–20°C) and crisp nights often dipping below freezing, with golden aspen and serviceberry colors peaking from late September into October. Trails are quieter, viewpoints feel more intimate, and clear, dry air makes for outstanding night skies. Peak months: October, September, August Avoid: November, December, January, February
