Special Report: Sedona, Arizona
Fall color spreads across the high desert near Sedona at dawn (11/1/15) Alena Nicholas
Occasionally, we’ll get autumn shots from other parts of the country. This autumn, we posted one from Idaho. California is our focus, but it’s interesting to see what’s happening elsewhere, now and then, though we’ll always be true to CA. There’s just too much fall color here to start taking on the rest of the country.
However, today we receive this special report from Alena Nicholas who was in Flagstaff and Sedona, Arizona. Alena provides this postcard collection of the change of season in one of our neighboring states. So, we’re creating a new category called “Special Report” where photographs from other fall color destinations can be published.
Let’s look at what Alena discovered in The Grand Canyon State.

An autumn hike along the West Fork of Oak Creek is one of the best short hikes anywhere in the country. The combination of the maples and the red rock is just incredible. We’ve had the good fortune of catching this area at it’s peak a couple of times. It should be on any leaf peeper’s fall color bucket list.
