Fall in Alaska

Strictly photos today, to show how much variation there is in how the leaves turn. We’re at the point where the birches and aspens range from just starting to turn to having lost all their leaves (especially with the winds we had Sunday.)

The last to turn, looking East about an hour before sunset Sept. 17. Notice that many of the deciduous trees are nearly bare. Mostly only the non-native trees are still green.

Looking North, still about an hour before sunset. Most trees that still have their leaves are gold.
