NorCal’s November Fall Colors, Sunrises, And Sunsets…Unforgettable!

The days are short this month. The mornings are chilly. But the scenery is breathtaking! Taking a ride, walk, or hike in the Northern California outdoors will not be regretted. November sunrises, and sunsets are the most colorful of the entire year. The backdrop of a orange, red, and yellow sunset depict all the colors of Fall. This making for amazing outdoor photographs. It should be experienced at least once, by anybody living in Northern California. Personally it is my favorite time of year. Get outside and enjoy what Northern California has to offer you for absolutely free! The Northern California foothills will leave you a stunning sunset over the Sacramento Valley. Deep reds, subtle oranges, with purple, lavender, and magenta. Are frequently displayed in the minutes just before and just after sunset. We are very, very, fortunate to have such a beautiful outdoors here in Northern California. There are plenty of places to see free to the public and waiting for guests. Take the time to step away from work. The daily grind, and the stresses of every day living. Do yourself a favor and step outside. Go see something you haven’t seen yet.

The fall backdrop surrounds the jet boat ride up the Sacramento River canyon. The boat ride alone will leave a person gazing at their surroundings. Each turn in the river reveals a new backdrop reflecting off the rivers surface.
