Bishop Pass Trailhead - a photo on Flickriver

            Late afternoon leaf-peeping led me to South Lake on the edge of the John Muir Wilderness in the Eastern Sierras.  

As the sun was starting to play hide and seek with the clouds, I decided that hiking further onto the Bishops Pass Trail was probably not going to yield much, so I loitered around the trailhead looking for interesting compositions.  I like how this wide angle, including Hurd Peak worked out from this vantage.  

With several years of la Niña plaguing Southern California, South Lake is extremely low.  The cafe and pontoon boat proprietor at Sabrina Lake told me they haven't been able to put boats in South Lake for three years, and this coming winter looks like another dry one.  These clouds, despite being a nuisance for photography produced no rain.
