    Big Lake is a great lake in an area with lots of outdoors fun all around. So much fun stuff to do here in the Central Sierra Nevada, too delightful to be true. Lord Meadow is a glorious place to stretch your legs a bit. Best Value Yosemite Westgate Lodge is a great spot to get some rest; if you came to camp Hetch Hetchy Campground is a brilliant location to do that. What a location this is for outdoors people. Styx Pass is a glorious place to explore close  
   to Big Lake, and a quick journey to East Fork Cherry Creek is beyond doubt a delightful idea.

Man, is there lots of amusing stuff to do in the Central Sierra Nevada. There's so much to do here at Big Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Hetch Hetchy Backpackers Campground is a tremendous location for that;
 
               in the event that you don't mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on Stanislaus River - Middle Fork. Really tremendous skiing awaits you at Dodge Ridge, and lakes are such peaceful locations, why not take a look at Boundary Lake.
