Suggest you peruse the October (and Sept/Nov) reports from:

This will give a general idea of when assorted areas hit peak color.
Mid October: http://wildinarizona.com/wordpress/?p=263
The last week of October begins to bring maple and aspen color to the lower (5~6000 ft) elevations of assorted S. Az mountain ranges (Huachuca, Pinaleno, Galiuro, Santa Rita, Catalina, etc.) There are a number of 'famous' canyons to hike, such as Ramsey, Carr, Ash Ck., Cave Ck. (Chiricahua range)., etc., and even more that are relatively unknown and probably a bit harder to access. Timing varies, so no guarantees! (The last few years have brought warmer-than-usual weather to the area in Sept. and Oct, and a notably delayed response from the trees.)
