Marlette lake is a lake near to Lake Tahoe. The hike to Marlette is about 10 miles roundtrip and known to be one of the prettiest fall hikes in the area. I went there on Oct. 19th . The colors where indeed amazing. I try to go every year in the fall but think this fall was one of the best I have seen. Maybe I caught it at just the right time as we are predicted to get snow on the 21st. 
ahhhhhhhhhh. I love aspens, and I especially love it when they turn that unexpected rosy pinky orangey color. You captured the essence of high mountain aspen country perfectly.
ReplyDeleteSo do I . I think fall is my favorite time of year . To bad it is so short a season.
DeleteAbsolutely stellar, Sue! jeeeez I wish the weather had been a tad more warmer... I really would love to ... I just still might go that way. how can I leave California without doing so...
ReplyDeleteIs that an otter or a beaver? jeeeeez that's gorgeous!
Thank you all. Carolyn, it is a beaver. We are getting snowed on now. Had about a foot fall over the last couple days and it is cold !!! It always takes awhile to get used to the cold when it first comes. I think you missed the fair weather period for Tahoe.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are magnificent! While I loved all of the beautiful Aspens, I thought the Beaver shot was really cool! I like how you caught this guy/girl dragging along a branch with leaves in tow right in the middle of all that color. Great capture!
