PhotographTrip, looking for color / nff 17 Years, 5 Months ago  
Saturday my Wife and I drove over Hwy 88 looking for the aspen trees turning color. We found some, and also while over there, I took pictures of some of the lakes we passed.
We made it as far as Hope Valley before turning around to head home. There were snow flurries but it wasn't too bad. Couldn't go over Sonora Pass because the snow closed the road.I thought about fishin Heenen but I heard (afterwards) they closed Monitor pass because of the snow. It did look very stormy over that way.
I did bring the rod but only did some token fishing on the Mokelumne river on the way home for 20 min for nada.

Here's some of the pictures.





Sliver Lake


Caples Lake ( I just read the artical on Caples here on the ncffb)


Red Lake: I talked to a gentelman there who had 4 fish, looked to be about 12" brookies.


My Favorite shot of the day !!


We stopped at Cook Station for a chili burger, it was good..

Great Shots Dave!

You really got some nice ones, my wife will be jealous when she sees your pictures . I agree with your choice of favorite of the day as well. You really got the great color you were looking for on that one.

Best Wishes,

Bill

Nice shots, Dave!
I particularly like the subtlety and complexity of the Silver Lake photo. Deep and rich!

Hey Slim 17 Years, 5 Months ago  
Next time you're over this way drop me an email. I only live 30 minutes or so from Hope Valley. It would be nice to see you again and chat some old times or do some fishing. I spend a lot of time fishing around Blue Lakes. It's turned into my favorite spot now.

My favorite thing about fishing isn't the catching, but just being there - Beerfly
