Cottonwood trees turning yellow at Fort Davis

One of the things that caught my attention at the site of Fort Davis was a row of cottonwood trees (Populus deltoides) whose leaves had turned yellow. You’re seeing two of those cottonwoods here, and you’re also getting a glimpse of another section of the cliffs that border one side of the camp. The picture below provides a closer look at some of the bright yellow leaves on another cottonwood tree in this row.
