Last week’s wintry weather in the Eastern Sierra took a toll on Rock Creek Lake and Canyon. While pops of color remain along the road and some around the lake, many trees, especially on the road up to Little Lakes Valley Trail are past peak – stripped of their leaves or showing bunches that are turning black.
This canyon is still a beautiful sight to behold, and will be through the end of the week when more weather is predicted to roll in. It is an interesting mix of past peak, but also still some limey green. There were many people out fishing when we visited today and the resort is open until Oct. 13. If this spot is on your list for the 2025 season you must not wait. GO NOW!
Rock Creek Lake (9,700′) – Peak to Past Peak (75-100%) GO NOW! You almost missed it.
