Michael Frye has a report on his photo blog on Yosemite Valley Fall Color
Overall the color in the valley was quite nice. The big-leaf maples have held on longer than I expected, and at least 70% still have their leaves. The black oaks were near peak, with some still partially green, but most trees completely turned. It doesn’t seem to be a great year for dogwoods, as many have just turned brown, but we found some colorful specimens, especially in the west end of the valley. And as I said in my last post, the cottonwoods are all out of sync, with some already bare, but the ones that were green a week ago have turned and have some rich color. It’s not the best autumn in Yosemite Valley, but I’ve seen much worse, and it’s quite pretty right now. There should still be some great color through this weekend.
