Eastern Sierra Fall Color, Aspens in Autumn

152 images | VIEW SLIDESHOW

Fall colors in the Eastern Sierra. Quaking aspen trees in autumn. Bishop Creek Canyon holds vast, thick groves of aspen trees (Populus tremuloides). Since aspen groves are clones, they all leaf out together in spring. In fall they change color simultaneously, resulting in fantastic expanses of canyonsides covered in rich hues of yellow and orange, as if the countryside is aflame
