Hello! Our family of four went to YNP and GTNP last summer and had a great time! I'd like to surprise my DH with a 20th anniversary trip to GTNP next fall over a long weekend. We've been out west to the Rockies many times but have never seen it in the fall; we'd love to see some bull moose, too. (only saw young ones last year).
Anyway... I no there isn't an exact date, but can anyone suggest a good time to go to catch the fall colors (I know it doesn't last long!) and/or lots of wildlife? Columbus day would be perfect for us (we both work in the schools), but I bet that's way too late and snow will be flying. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks!
