coming weather...

Looks like it's going to be a perfect weekend up in Mammoth...clean, highs in the 50s, lows in the 20s.  Perfect fall weather.  Reading all the photographers' sites i can find, it sounds like the color's already peaked in the higher elevations, and the cold front that dropped snow a week ago really hit the aspens hard.  Down low, under 8,000 feet it's either still green or just starting to go.  Should be gorgeous.

Sure do wish I had a few more days to be there, though, since it sounds like there's a pretty good sized storm rolling in monday/tuesday.  It's not supposed to be all that cold, and will probably take the last bit of snow hanging around from the previous storm with it.  Sierra storms though, I just love 'em.  Feeling the change in the winds, the high clouds and the moisture in the air the day before.  Maybe sunday will be like that, if we're lucky.

A couple more hours, then on the road.
