A Path Well-Traveled

I was hoping for a "leaves no step had trodden black" photo, but all the paths I found were pretty well-traveled.  Plus most leaves were still on the trees when I visited last weekend.  I think it rained up here yesterday, so that was probably a good day for a yellow path photo.  This one was taken much later in the morning, and the light had changed quite a bit.  The leaf color is much more golden and less yellow.  I think I prefer the yellow, but I do like how the light is hitting the bark here.
