Don’t miss the beauty of the Mammoth Lakes Basin with peak fall colors.

The trees are glowing in shades of gold and amber, according to color spotter Samantha Lindberg, while the bushes surrounding the lakes display a range of colors from peak, green, and past peak. Colors are changing quickly within this area, so add this to the top of your list before it’s too late.  

Additionally, the fall colors around town, itself, have come along beautifully over the past week. As you explore, you’ll find some areas where the trees are at their peak, while others just need a few more days to reach full color.
