Colorful Days of Autumn Along The American River

By
Real Estate Agent

There are special autumn days when I feel fortunate to live in close proximity to the American River Parkway.  The leaves turning golden coupled with activity on the river adds to the warm spirit of the season.

While Salmon fishing is closed from November 1st through December 31st along many areas of the American River.  It continues to remain open on the section of The American River below the SMUD power-line at the southwest boundary of Ancil Hoffman Park in Carmichael, across the river from Rancho Cordova’s Hagan Community Park.

These scenes were taken along that stretch of The American River Parkway.

Good morning Myrl. Not a fisherman but sure could take in the beauty of the area with a long walk. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your day.

That is such a beautiful place and I think that I spent some time on the American River when I was in Sacramento a long time ago.

Myrl there is something about water that seems to heighten the color of trees.  Great pictures.

Hannah Williams - I'm glad you like it.  I was out and about a couple hours ago.  The fog lifted, and the sun came out.  The golden leaves coupled with a perfectly blue sky has made for a gorgeous day.

Laura Cerrano - Funny thing.  I was just watching a documentary about Bob Ross a few days ago.

Nina Hollander, Broker - The river is only a couple blocks from home.  There are bike trails, which I sometimes enjoy riding on.  Especially, this time of year.

Kat Palmiotti - The river in autumn is a favorite haunt for salmon fishermen.  Nimbus Fish Hatchery is just up river a few miles from home.

Bill Salvatore - YVP Blog - I've been busy today getting my house ready for family to come home.  I spent last year alone because of the pandemic.  But, this year, we will be twelve for dinner.

Michael Jacobs - Why yes, California does have a very beautiful autumn in many areas of the state.  Some of my favorites are Apple Hill in El Dorado County, and Napa Sonoma Wine Country.  I'm sure you have favorites in your area as well.

Wayne Martin - Like you, I'm not much of a fisherman, but I'll cook and eat it, if it shows up on my kitchen counter already dressed and ready for the pan.

Brian England - The American River is very popular for rafting in the warmer summer months.  There is a raft rental place a couple miles from home.  I've enjoyed rafting several times over the years.

Joan Cox - The river is one of those things I'm grateful for.  The environment there seems so far removed than the 2 blocks from home it actually is.

Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD - You're very welcome.  I hope you are enjoying the weekend!  

Anna Banana Kruchten CRS, CRB, Phoenix Broker - We are enjoying an exceptionally gorgeous Sacramento day.  

Kathleen Daniels, Probate & Trust Specialist - Those are my thoughts precisely.  

George Souto - I think the reflection of the colorful trees on the water enhances the experience.

Myrl Jeffcoat - Now I know why you fell in love where you live and why you enjoy The American River Parkway. Your photographs are absolutely gorgeous. I could easily fall in love with it myself and feel like I would never want to move. These fall shots are stunning!

Both my daughter and son rowed on the American river and thus I spent a lot of time enjoying the surroundings Myrl 🙂.
