Autumn is knocking on the door and that means beautiful fall colors will be coming to North America soon. To get in the mood for this photogenic season, look at this 8K drone video of the Manti-La Sal National Forest, in Utah and Colorado.

8K drone video of Manti-La Sal National Forest

The 8K drone video is featured on the YouTube channel More Than Just Parks and has been produced by The Pattiz Brothers. The makers of the video stay current with the latest drone technology because their latest production has been filmed in 8K UHD resolution. That means that you can see incredibly many details on a large, hi-res screen.

From the description:

The Manti-la Sal National Forest is larger than all national parks of Utah together and offers snowy mountains, kaleidoscopic autumn foliage, the sacred Bears Ears National Monument, dazzling red rock formations, pristine lakes, lush valleys, clear rivers, and endless panoramas.

The Manti-La Sal offers unparalleled recreational opportunities, but it is also a powerful proof of the importance of protecting the wild areas of Utah so that they remain #forevermighty.

About where and when to observe the most beautiful Fall colors, the makers of the 8K drone video said the following:

To make this film we spent weeks in Utah’s Manti-La Sal National Forest during the end of September and beginning of October to try and catch the spectacular fall foliage. We were not disappointed.

Whereas most of Utah’s National Parks do not have much in the way of fall foliage (except for Zion & Capitol Reef), the Manti has some of the most breathtaking autumn beauty anywhere in the world.
