Spearfish Canyon leaves continue changing

Posted:

Fall colors in Spearfish Canyon keep climbing according, to canyon author Jerry Boyer.

Boyer says leaves in the canyon began to change colors about a week earlier than usual this year because of the drought.

Some trees are already dropping their leaves and Boyer says time will tell if there will be a peak of the fall colors this year.  A peak occurs when all the trees and shrubs are changing colors at once.

An estimated 100,000 vehicles will drive through Spearfish Canyon during autumn to see the leaves turn.
