Viewpoints From The Heights

The view from the Champlain Lookout is stunning when the fall colours are at their height like this.


I had descended the stairs to the lower area.


The hiking trail starts from here, descending its way down the slope.


I took in more of the landscape views.


Coming back up to the top, I happened to come across this very good doggie.


I leave off with these two views from the Lookout. Thus ends my formal fall series for the year, though I will have one post at the end of the month with a seasonal look at the Museum of Nature.

  17. Outstanding. How I miss autumn. We live in S. California, along the I-15 Riverside County. Desert, except in golf courses.

  18. What makes these views so special is due partly to the beautiful river winding its way through the landscape in the distance. And the colors, of course. Magnificent colors!
