Quaking aspen at Antelope Lake in Plumas County’s Indian Valley (Northern Sierra) are peaking with bright orange-gold color.
The drive to remote Antelope Lake on the Genessee/Antelope Lake Rd. passes the charming town of Taylorsville (Pop. 154), that has changed little since it was founded in 1852.
Elsewhere in the Shasta Cascade, bright color is appearing in Chester at Lake Almanor, where an exotic red maple stands beside the town’s bicycle rental shop.
