Eastern Sierra Fall Colors

The cool nights over the last few days have worked thier magic on the aspens. Things are starting to happen up Bishop Creek and Rock Creek. We drove up Bishop Creek on Saturday and the trees were very green, but I went up there again this morning and the change was quite remarkable. There is much more yellow now, and a lot on the way. I think that by the first of Oct. the colors will be looking very nice.

I drove up Rock Creek yesterday and it's pretty much the same there. One sad thing though. The aspens that are at the top of the canyon on the east side, are done. The wind got them and they looked pretty much bare.

Convict Lake and Mcgee Creek still have a ways to go.

That's all for now.

Good thing peak colors weren't happening last week or they would've blown away from all the wind! :) We were in town thurs-sat looking for rentals and houses to buy. Sure met a lot of nice locals. Can't wait to get up there!

I didn't gat any pics that day, because the smoke was horrible. As soon as I get pics I will post some. Today the wind is howling outside, but I may get up Bishop Creek tomorrow.
