. First California Summer. First 100 degree day of hiking last year. First time being surprised at how quickly the lush, green spring dries away into shades of gold and auburn here in NorCal. First time trying to fly fish somewhere besides the neighborhood pond (not the first time only catching small sunfish). First time navigating a maze of permits and fees just to take a little wander around the lake. ...a lot of firsts on this day. None of them will be the last...#i❤️california. #firststime #nature #beauty #forestcreature #deer #wildflowers #california #calilife #camanchereservoir #lakecamanche #hiking #fishing #tenkara #camping #ultralightbackpacking #beautyinthecommonplace #sierras #norcal #outdoorphotography #iphone8plusphotography #picoftheday #trailhead #backcountrypermit #fees #springisover #startofsummer (at Lake Camanche Recreation) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqN-uD0H1eN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ykuqedxx011m
