The Lower Mineral King Road

I went away for 6 days and missed a blogging appointment. While I am sorting out my thoughts and photos of the time away, here is a post from about 2 weeks ago, the last time I went to Mineral King.

The flume has a leak or something, so there has been water in this little drainage a few miles up the road ALL SUMMER LONG!
It takes us a very long time to navigate the road because we get to stop and talk to friends who are heading down.
The Tar Weed has been thick and early this season. This is the windmill by the historic Sweet Ranch.
Nice colors for early September!
The potholes at Squirrel Creek have run ALL SUMMER LONG!
There is a weird vine that grows over shrubs on the lower road. I never notice it until fall when it looks like fuzz-balls.
See?

  2. Love seeing the fall colors, but it makes me sad because it means the summer Mineral King season will soon be over!
