Well, just about. March is one of the quietest times in the Park. Not many people around at all. They don't know what they're missing!
When it's this quiet, I often paint the 'easy access spots' that can be crowded in other seasons. Today I headed to Palette Spring - right up the boardwalk from Liberty Cap in Mammoth.
It's a gorgeous spot on the Terraces - lots of water flowing right now.

And wildlife was everywhere. Remember, I only live about 5 miles from Mammoth. But you can see a lot in those 5 miles! Here's just a small sampling of what I saw...

| Pronghorn |

| Elk |

Hey, when no one is around, why not?!

It's GREAT when you can finally take the gloves off for plein air painting.
Can't wait to get back out there!
