Scenes Along the American River Parkway

I love to walk. One of my favorite places is along the American River Parkway. The parkway is a 39 mile, paved biking and hiking trail that follows the American River between downtown Sacramento and Folsom Lake. There are also many dirt paths off the main trail that let you enjoy the riparian oak woodlands along the river. Here are a few scenes from my hikes.

Its damp and foggy. The recent rain has saturated the color of the vegetation along the banks of an ephemeral pool that lays dry after the river last receded.
