Awesome Autumn at Lake Tahoe
Quaking Aspen, North Lake Tahoe (10/28/12) John Poimiroo
This has been an extended autumn with little wind (so far) to knock turned leaves from the trees. It’s now peaking from June Lake to the Northern Sierra. Over the weekend, we drove to North Lake Tahoe and found spots of color along I-80, CA-267 and CA-28 (North Lake Blvd.).
