West Walker Discovery
West Walker River (10/10/17) Mark Harding
The West Walker River is often overlooked as a fall color location. Mark Harding didn’t make that mistake.
Instead, he drove along a dirt road, 15 miles north of Bridgeport, to Obsidian Campground in the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest yesterday to find aspen and willows in all stages of peak, coloring the dense forest near the stream with avocado green, gold, orange and rose. And, yes, it’s a First Report for this location on the West Walker River.
