Searching South Shore

Fall Color Report, High Sierra

A weekend hike or ride can carry you to undiscovered fall color. Michelle Pontoni discovered this while exploring South Lake Tahoe, this past week.

She’d cycled along a bike trail to Pope Beach off CA-89 finding golden willows, cattails and bigleaf maple within wetlands and drainages.

At Van Sickle Bi-State Park (a state park that overlaps the state line) golden and orange foliage was pushing up from within a former burn scar.
