Unsynchronized North Lake
(North Lake, Bishop Creek Canyon – 10/3/17) – Here’s a report from Bishop Creek Canyon, recorded today.
North Lake and Sabrina Lake are Near Peak, though with large areas of Patchy color. South Lake has Peak color and is glorious!
Please note: This autumn is very different in Bishop Creek Canyon from previous ones in that the color is not synchronized. Groves in the same area are at all stages, from Just Starting to Past Peak.
So, if you delay visiting, you’re likely to miss it all, as no one area is going to peak all at once this year. Only South Lake has that potential, but even the green among the groves is spectacular, there. Expect to see bare limbs near brilliant color, beside green trees.
Bottom Line… GO NOW!
Thank you, John!
Well from no reports to Near Peak – Go Now! ….. I guess reports are not coming in so well this year
Very few areas in the Eastern Sierra have peaked. Exception: Sagehen Meadows. However, the Near Peak locations are spectacular (even though many of the trees are still green). New reports are about to be posted.
