Yesterday’s blustery day made some worry that the color might be stripped, but that only happens when the leaves have turned substantially or in a bigger blow.
Color spotter Bruce Wendler found Upper Lundy Canyon and Dunderberg Meadows Rd. to be wind survivors. Only a few trees lost leaves and that just carpeted the forest with color. Plan on Lundy for a week from now, as it’s still Patchy. As for Dunderberg, it’s at Peak, though Bruce recommends to make it an afternoon visit. That’s when the “red heads” are backlit and beautiful.
Wendler
- Lundy Lake (7,858′) – Patchy (10 – 50%)
- Dunderberg Meadows Rd. (9,600′) – Peak (75 – 100%), GO NOW!
