p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Oregon Fall Color Timing?


Will there be any fall color in Oregon (or Washington) from approximately Oct 16 to 22? If so, any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim

Hey Jim. Yes things are just starting to turn and get good here in the Hood River Area. So far most of the color is up in the higher valleys and hills. I just posted a few pictures in the landscape fall color folder that I took this week to give you an idea. Let me know if you have any specific questions and I will try to answer them. Also if you are looking for a shooting partner I would be delighted to meet up. Brian

I think McKenzie pass out of Eugene may be good then. The trees are getting good but much wind or rain will take stuff down real fast after a dry summer. The Columbia gorge hikes should be nice then. If you are in Portland the Japanese garden is nice for the next several weeks. Good timing for color but the dry year will make the leaves come down fast and we are getting some wind and rain this weekend. Sept and Oct are usually my favorite months here.

Hey Brian, thanks for the info, I will check out the photos you posted. And definitely if I end up doing that I will let you know, it would be great to shoot with you.

Thanks! Shooting the waterfalls in the gorge might be a real possibility. I thought Japanese Gardens was best around Thanksgiving? Or is that just got that one famous tree?

The Japanese Garden is closed until March 1, 2015. Jim, Will be in Portland from the 17-22, planning on Proxy Falls, Boardman, and The Gorge if you're interested in meeting up?

Just did a weekend of Shooting in the Gorge and Mt Hood area. Fall colors were very disappointing. The level of water in the waterfalls that are not spring fed is also very disappointing.

Hey Emmett,

Meeting would have been great, but it looks like our timing is off. I will be shooting Punchbowl tomorrow morning and checking out Eagle Creek at that time.

Hey Brian,

Man, I forgot all about your mentioning about shooting together. If you see this in time, I will be shooting Punchbowl in the morning, hopefully starting about 7:30 or so.

Thanks for the update Rohan. I was told the colors were pretty good back up on Eagle Creek. I will be hiking that tomorrow so we shall see. I hope to see at least a little nice color.

Sorry I have to work this morning. Good luck with eagle creek. Don't forget to look for salmon. Cross the little footbridge across from the parking lot and walk along the stream and you should see spawning action. If are still around tomorrow let me know I am off then. Brian

Sounds good, I didn't shoot eagle creek this year. Part of the Gorge that I liked personally was Fairy Falls hike. If you get a chance, check that out.
