Upper Bidwell in Early Fall

Our recent car trip up the Chico Creek through Upper Bidwell Park. Not many fall colors yet, but still an incredible place.
Trip was at mid-day, so colors and contrast are kinda washed out as it was a bright, cloudless day. I'm gonna try to go up at daybreak sometime

All of these were shot with a 24-105/f4L IS. Despite the fact that I didn't notice I'd bumped ISO to 1600 and the midday time, I think they came out nice. Second time using the lens.
