It's Larch season and I wanted to head up and see some larches so a few of us went a hunting to Southfork Lakes. Hiking in the fall is one of my favorite times to hike, because the weather in cooler and the colors are amazing and usually there is no smoke from forest fires. Today was exactly all those things. I'd done been here before but had summited the Southfork Mountain before, today was just a leisurely trip to the larches. I've tried transplanting a few tiny larch trees a couple of times that never worked so today, I found a few pine cones from the trees and will maybe attempt to grow from seed next spring... stay tuned
