Tahoe: Fall Colors & Bears

We detoured, slightly, on our path to see our kiddos with a brief pause in Lake Tahoe.

We were there for the quaking aspens and the Ursus americanus (we were pleased by both).

While the fall colors are waning, there was enough of Nature's eye candy to make our hearts happy.

Our first bear sighting made us giddy.

We ventured to Taylor Creek with hopes of Bear Sighting #2. We were not disappointed.

Steve heard this big guy rustling in the bushes so we awaited his appearance. Wow. So dang fun.

There's something so Tahoe about seeing bears in their element.

The kokanee salmon were plentiful and this was one very happy bear.

"It's poetic for some and scary for others how,

once our time is done,

we're returned to nature for us to create something new.”
