Sacramento Valley Still Patchy, but Approaching Peak

Mormon Island Wetlands Reserve, Folsom (10/26/19) John Poimiroo

Fremont cottonwood at the Mormon Island Wetlands Reserve in Folsom and in open space wetlands are crested with gold, as peak approaches.

Chinese pistache, El Dorado Hills (10/26/19) John Poimiroo

This area has peaked, traditionally, in mid November, though the color is already beautiful.

Wetland areas of Folsom’s Humbug-Willow Creek Trail are full of ruby foliage, and streets throughout the area are lined with iridescent exotic Chinese pistache.
