Weekend reports have not yet been received from our color spotters, so it’s too early to state with authority how this past weekend’s storms affected fall color. In past years when winds in excess of 45 mph swept the state, leaves that had turned color were knocked from the trees. That probably occurred this past weekend, as in some places winds as high as 100 mph were predicted to have blown across the High Sierra.
In advance of receiving our reports, let’s give thanks for one of California’s best fall color seasons so far… with a full month of great color, as evidenced by these great shots taken by Rob Bohning in the Eastern Sierra last weekend. Rob followed our advice and got to the East Side when the going was good. Here’s what he found:

Great shots, We missed it by a week. My uncle and I where up there the week before you, and we got a little color but nut like you. Congrats on the shots.
