🍁 Unexpected Beauty Along the Yosemite Route

395 Autumn Colors Are Stunning! This trip to Yosemite, I purposely took a 2-hour detour via Highway 395 to visit Lake Sabrina & South Lake—and it was totally worth it! 🚗💨 Lake Sabrina was near peak fall colors (as of 9/29/2025)—the mountainsides were golden, and the lakeside scenery looked like a painting! 🎨🍂 The row of tall aspen trees at the campground entrance were glowing gold under the sunlight—so breathtaking! ✨ South Lake was even more spectacular—like a spilled palette of yellow, orange, red, and green layers reflecting on the water. Felt like stepping into a Van Gogh masterpiece! 🌅🖼️ Have you driven the 395 during fall? What’s your favorite autumn color spot in California?
