| Gary with what looks like a Fremont Cottonwood |
Capture California, the Game-2013
Adventure: 308-Colorful
Cottonwood
Team: YOLT
Date: October 22, 2013
Location:
Yosemite Valley
Description:
As we went further around our hike on the West Yosemite Valley Loop Trail, we would see cottonwood trees off in the distrance. From there we could not tell if the trees were Black or Fremont Cottonwoods. Or maybe they are some other. When we came across this tree, we thought, bingo, the bark looks like a Fremont Cottonwood, not like a Black Cottonwood. But once again, this is to our untrained eyes.

Yosemite has a Fall
Colors site which identifies that both Black and Fremont
Cottonwoods are found in the park.
