Aspen Lake has become a favorite short fall hike. Last year I went with Susan and all of our dogs on Halloween Day. See that day here. Yesterday, just Suzanne and me and no dogs. Deer season starts this Saturday so it looks like we will miss the peak of fall colors up there. Last year, I was too late, this year too early. Either way, it’s still beautiful.
The trail around the lake
I love the movement of the aspens
Methow big sky
These ripples were caused by a giant dragonfly that flew into the water and thrashed around for a while. Pretty soon a fish came and tried to eat it.
Pretty peaceful place
I enjoyed the patterns of the tall grasses on the way down the trail
