Day 3 started early. We headed to Convict lake to catch the sunrise. Not only did we catch the sunrise, we had a near-full moon setting over the far hills as the sun was rising. We couldn’t ask for more!
Next stop was Lundy Lake. We heard the colors were just starting. But, as soon as we turned up the road, we knew we were in for a real show.
Last stop for the day was Conway Summit…just a little further north. As you round the first bend the fall color scene overlooked Mono Lake. What more could you ask for?

Up early on Day 2. Headed up Pine Creek, on to Rock Creek with a quit run up to Convict Lake to scope it out for the next mornings sunrise shoot.
The first thing you come to when you turn up the road to Pine Creek…Very photogenic…
Then the road juste get’s better…
And Better…
Short stop along Pine Creek and we are on our way to Rock Creek…
You head up Rock Creek out of Tom’s Place, just off Highway 395 and it didn’t take long to get into the swing of things…
Great Color!!

The first day out we needed most of the early morning to get our camp in Bishop organized. So, we focused on one area today…The Bishop Creek Canyon. The road heads straight west out of Bishop and works its way up through typically beautiful Eastern Sierra wilderness. On Bishop Creek road you can head straight up to lake Sabrina at the end of the road. You can take side trips to North Lake and South Fork. We focused on the main road to Sabrina.
At 8,000 and up feet the Aspen were in all their fall glory. As expected, at the highest elevations the leaves were nearing their “Use-by-date” and yellow was turning to orange and some browning. All, in all, our timing couldn’t have been better.
First fall color sightings…
Best view of the canyon heading into Aspendell…
The shot everyone gets just short of Sabrina…
Nothing like Aspen turning with the sun back lighting them…
Tomorrow we’ll head north up Highway 395. there are many options along the way. Stay tuned!
