Fall Has Begun in Mineral King

These photos are a little over a week old, so the colors are probably better now, unless the rain knocked all the colored leaves off the trees.

This Blazing Star is a hanger-onner for sure.
Are these deer gathering together in the Park so that they are safe from the hunters?
Franklin Falls is looking a bit sparse, but better now that SCE opened the gates on the dams.
The yellow tunnel of cottonwoods isn’t very yellow yet. This is just before getting to Crystal Creek.
This is the view from the top of Endurance Grade/Coral Hill, looking across the creek at the aspens along the Nature Trail.

  1. Thank you for all you do to lift our souls with the joy found in the Mineral King Valley and mountains we love!!!

    • Hi Ranee and welcome to my blog! Do we know each other? I will add you to my mailing list – thank you for asking!

      • No, Jana. I doubt you would remember me. My daughter Michelle and I would come and stay at the Crowley Cabin sometimes with Virginia Tillman and Margaret Merrow. Our daughters were friends. I am a member of the MK preservation and an avid fan of the whole place.

        • Thanks for the explanation, Ranee! We enjoy visiting with Virginia and Margaret each summer. I’ve met Virginia’s daughter and this summer I met Margaret’s daughter, the runner from New York.

  2. Could you add me to your mailing list?
