We’re feeling lucky today. Even though fall color has been visible in locations throughout California since August, Google’s search masthead today makes it official. Finally, it’s fall. In the past week, I traveled to attend a travel writer’s conference in Iceland. Though that Nordic country has much to its credit, Iceland’s fall color doesn’t hold a candle (or more appropriately, a lava flow) to California’s. Here are some of the great photos that have appeared on our Facebook site, since I took off towards the artic circle.
Alena Nichols posts these shots taken in the San Bernardino Mountains
Steve Wolfe sends these shots from the Eastern Sierra.
Susan Taylor visited the Napa Valley and Eastern Sierra for these great images.
Kimberly Kofala always has great shots, and these did not disappoint.
Candace Gregory sent these warm aspen leaves from the Mosquito Flat Trail near Rock Creek Lake.
Laura Thompson reports the color is beginning to develop on Hwy 89 north of Truckee.
And closing this gallery of recent shots is Katrina Lounsbury’s kernel of fall color.
