It’s final call for fall color in Inyo County (Eastern Sierra) where a few locations in the Owens Valley have Peak to Past Peak color and a winter storm is currently lashing what’s left. (Click photo above to enlarge)
Bishop color spotter Betsy Forsyth reports …
Bishop has lots of yellows, oranges and reds scattered throughout. There are still a few green trees, but with the storm that arrived Tuesday (Nov. 8), Inyo County’s autumn show will probably not last much longer. Now, should the wind not blow remaining peaking leaves from the trees, places like Bishop City Park are absolutely beautiful and worth visiting.
In Pine Creek, all of the aspen are past peak. There are oranges, yellows and still a few greens throughout the lower portion of the canyon. Again, a cold storm is here, and this is probably the last of the colors.
