Color spotter Michael Beatley sent in the following from Quincy on Oct. 14, 2023.
Photos from “this morning in downtown Quincy the maples and sycamores around the historic courthouse and Jackson Street, which runs parallel to Main St. Colors are at 80%. Peaking within a few days.”
On Oct. 12 Beatley also reported from Spanish Creek, which runs from above Meadow Valley, through Quincy to the North Fork of the Feather River, to the Sacramento River and on.
“It is a beautiful waterway, lined with Darmera, and aspens, willows, black oak, big leaf maples. The color is variable depending on elevation. Oakland Camp where these [photos] were taken is at 3500′ and at 60%.”
