Continuing the reports posted by Clayton Peoples and Kimberly Kolafa, I traveled to North Lake Tahoe today and stopped at the cabin beside Middle Martis Creek along CA-267, between Northstar and Brockway Summit. The aspen here have something for everyone, from deep green, to lime, to yellow to orange, to past peak.

There’s a lot of green in the woods, but also plenty of color to brighten the scene. This location should continue to provide color for at least two weeks.  There’s so much range of change that it’s difficult to rate it. Though, I’ll stick with Clayton’s assessment that it’s Near Peak, as that surely can be seen through most of the grove.

GO NOW! Near Peak (50-75%) – The Cabin at Middle Martis Creek, Truckee
