So for the first time in *weeks*, the smoke cleared from Owens Valley. I was able to ride the ol' scooter up to Lake Sabrina to capture some Fall colors. Sadly, the Inyo National Forest is still closed, so you can't enter, hike, or otherwise recreate anywhere at the lakes. So, I had to settle for a few photos from the edge of the nearest parking lot, or from the side of the road.
The marina (closed) at Lake Sabrina. You can see the aspens changing color nicely on the far shore.
Lake Sabrina, again, with the long lens.
This was Bishop Creek, at the North Lake turnout. The gate was closed up to North Lake, so I just stopped by the first bridge to shoot this.

Yellows, oranges, browns, reds, and greens - it must be Fall in the Eastern Sierra!

This was the Bishop Creek drainage, just above Cardinal Lodge, on Highway 168, west of Bishop, California.
