Lake Sabrina – Nearing Peak

Lake Sabrina, Bishop Creek Canyon, Inyo County (9/25/21) Gary Young

Lake Sabrina moved rapidly from Patchy to Near Peak over the weekend.

Bishop color spotter Gary Young captured a bit of haze from So. California fires, softening the sky, but otherwise the color is vibrant, particularly on slopes to the left of the lake.

He’s hopeful that northerly winds and cooler temperatures (it’s expected to drop below freezing overnight by Tuesday), will speed color change. They upper areas of Bishop Creek Canyon are now definitely a GO NOW! situation, though lower elevations are still Just Starting to Patchy.
