Alaska

In the U.S., leaf-peeping season runs longer than you might think. Autumn comes early in Alaska, brushing Denali National Park with purple and gold in late August. In warmer climates, fall colors can last well into November. This Sept. 2, 2007 photo shows autumn foliage in Denali National Park in Alaska.
