Aspens are one of my favorite trees. I love the contrast of the white tree trunks and the green undergrowth. We took an adventurous drive over the Alpine Loop, a backroad through the Wasatch Mountains, and enjoyed the clear blue sky and the aspen groves along the high mountain ridges. What we didn't expect were the huge traffic jams along the road at the various trailheads. We spent about half an hour not moving while the Forest Rangers tried to untangle the traffic. It looks like our idea of a beautiful weekend drive was the same idea as hundreds of other people from the valleys.
