I had a little time in between meetings so decided to squeeze in a trail run to the larch grove at Riverside State Park. Everything has been late to change colors this year, but the recent cold snap finally brought out the brightest fall colors! It's very pretty with the dusting of snow on everything, although a few of the trees appear to be impacted by the weight of the snow since they still have their needles. This little larch grove is becoming quite tall, now, too! It is prime time to see them. The trails are a bit slippery in some areas, although also bare in spots so I didn't bother with traction devices for this one. Use caution on the downhills and immediately around Bowl & Pitcher where there has been some melting & re-freezing.
