As daylight savings time approaches and autumn colors begin to fade, it was time for one more hike to enjoy the color and sunshine of autumn.
|
Time for some hiking along the Rogue River at Valley of the Rogue State Park |
We drove highway 99 from Medford to
Valley of the Rogue State Park so we could enjoy a last autumn drive only to find that most of our drive was in fog. As a matter of fact, our entire hike on the River's Edge trail and along the
Rogue River Greenway to our turnaround at the Depot Street Bridge was in fog and clouds.
|
Adding a little excitement for our hike. |
|
Despite the fog, the Rogue River is still beautiful with some autumn color added. |

On our return hike though, the fog and clouds burned off and the sun and blue sky took over.
|
Blue sky and autumn yellow! |
|
View along the Rogue River Greenway |
We saw lots of autumn yellow, especially on the River's Edge trail through Valley of the Rogue State Park.
|
Yellow, yellow, yellow! |

It was a very nice 6.8 mile hike and we enjoyed what will probably be our last autumn hike with color. Hope you got our to enjoy the season with a walk in the neighborhood, at a park or on a trail.
