Big Bear Goes Big
Black oak, Green Valley Lake, near Running Springs (10/7/17) Jim Lancaster
Big Bear, in the Inland Empire’s San Bernardino Mountains, is nearing peak with both native forests and landscaped yards full of color.
Color spotter Jim Lancaster traveled up from Orange County to enjoy autumn in the mountains, sharing pictures of black oak, carrying uncharacteristically golden leaves at Green Valley Lake and exotics dressing home in the town of Big Bear.
David Calhoun commented that “the leaves are definitely over 50% peak in Big Bear. Probably closer to 75% now… lots of beautiful colors over the past few days.”
