Hat Creek Rancheria

Posted by Craig (Vacaville, California, United States) on 16 October 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

Barb and I spent 5 days in a yurt (Mongolian tent) at the Hat Creek Rancheria in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, California. This is a shot of the lake just before sunrise. I'll highlight this area in the following series.

Real nice how the layers of interest in this overlap and relate . . leaving us to recreate the view as you saw it early that morning.

Looks like a peaceful place to be. I like the deep greens against the pale blue of the water. Glad you're back!
