October brings fall<br />

foliage to the Pinals:<br />

Sycamores, Aspens and<br />

Maples, Oh My!<br />

You don’t need a road trip north to see and photograph<br />

vivid autumn foliage; our Pinal Mountains, right here in<br />

Globe, offer camera-ready aspens, maples, sumacs and<br />

sycamores. <strong>Fall</strong> foliage in the Pinals peaks in late October<br />

and can last into early November, if the weather<br />

remains clement and heavy wind or rain doesn’t strip<br />

the trees.<br />

Lovely fall leaves throughout Gila County also beckon<br />

hikers and leaf-peepers to Payson and Rim Country<br />

trails; to the Sierra Anchas for autumn splendor<br />

along Workman Creek and Reynolds Creek; and to<br />

the scenic high desert community of Pleasant Valley.<br />
