We had a long list of things to do this fall. A few things went undone, but we got out and about a lot. We made it to two of the four Cascade Lakes on the fall list, once we wrapped up summer trips to Odell. Fall on the lakes is so nice, few people, good weather, empty campgrounds and fish that are still biting all make it my favorite time to be out on the water.
We have been waiting for the right time, the combination of nice fall weather and trying to time the color change on the aspens. The first weekend we had planned was forecasted to be snowy with highs possibly in the 40’s. Then the sunny weather came along and we headed east to the Steens with our fingers crossed hoping for some fall colors on the aspens.
It was nearly dark by the time we arrived. The days in October are just too short. But we awoke to blue skies and golden colors on the trees.
We escaped to Wyoming for a weekend. The aspens were perfect for a fall drive in Grand Teton National Park.
