Color spotter Ruth Hartman reports that Coffee Creek in the Shasta Cascade is nearing peak with lush bigleaf maple draping back country roads with bright yellow color.

Marc Hoshovski wondered why he hadn’t seen photos of fall color in the vineyards yet posted on this site. We were wondering the same and hoping to get them from photographers and spotters before the best color peaked.

Fall color remains so striking in Alpine County’s Hope Valley that even bluebirds are staying around to do some leaf peepin.
