Fall Colors Run 2008

Last week, Larry, Steve and I drove our cars (Me in the Audi A3 and Larry in his 997TT) up over three passes

(Chinook, White and Cayuse Passes) in search for some fall colors for a photo shoot. The weather was perfect

that day in every way. Very light traffic and beautiful scenery over Highway 169/410/12/123/410/169. We made a

stop for lunch at Whistling Jack Lodge along the way.

Some colors in my driveway

Some of the many Larches


Colors everywhere


Larches turn golden yellow before shedding.


Even the bikers were out in force too


The blue 997TT stands out among the fall colors

Our cars are sitting pretty


I wanted to get a closer shot of this waterfall but I'd probably have fallen over


Stunning view
