Given that many aspen did not leaf out until June this year, the peak color season is running late in some parts of the Mono Basin and Eastern Sierra. Lee Vining Canyon and Lundy Canyon are anywhere from 5-10 days from peak display depending on elevation. The June Lake Loop is just beginning to hit full color. Aspen are showing well up-canyon in most locations. This will be a slow, late-blazing October. The best is yet to come in the Mono Basin!
