Shadow & Ediza Lakes Hike
Christy trekked 13 miles to these lakes in the Mammoth backcountry before the snow started. Nice scenery...

Fall Colors - Best Pics
Lots of pics from all of the areas we drove to and/or hiked into this Fall. A good SLR and better timing with the afternoon sun probably would have helped. But we got some good ones with our point and shoot. Here are some highlights:

Fall Colors - Some HD Video
Fall colors are turning now--and there are some areas that look insane with color. It's hard to capture the brightness of the colors on these Aspen trees.
Here are a few videos--on some of them, the colors are so extreme that it washes out the background and makes it look almost black and white. The videos turned out brighter than the photos.

Lundy Canyon 10/9/11
Hiked up to the "20 lakes Basin" in search of Fall colors and waterfalls. Colors just beginning--several waterfalls.
Overall a nice day followed by dinner at The Mobil Mart. Essentially 4 star dining in the back of a Mobil gas station mart. I had heard about if for years and it lived up to the hype. Any day that ends with eating ribs and Buffalo meatloaf is a good day. Should have had the Elk chops though...they were thick.

Why the hell is it snowing on October 5th???
Big storm rolled in and dumped 10-15 inches starting October 5th. Hilarious--considering it was in the 70's just a few days prior and in the high 60's since.
First time I've ever been in snow at the beginning of October. Let me at least trick or treat first. Guess this year I'll dress up as a guy who isn't going mountain biking in the Fall like he planned. Sweet costume.
At least we know the snowblower works. And that blowing heavy, wet, early season snow sucks balls.
This could be a foreshadowing of things to come. Will we break last year's 700 inch record?
