     This lake is so wonderful. Stay the night at Willow Campground, and if you need a spot to stay Super 8 Bishop is a great choice. There's so much to do here at Chocolate Lakes that you need to camp here for a while, Aspen Meadow Campground is a great place for that, and paddling on Kings River - Middle Fork is so much fun. On a tremendous day at Chocolate Lakes you can take a hike along the Kings River Trail, and after a long day outdoors Days Inn Bishop is a delightful  
   place to spend a night or two.
You absolutely should fancy Chocolate Lakes. Lakes are such peaceful locations, why not stop by Inconsolable Lake close to Chocolate Lakes, and the panorama of beautiful Aperture Peak is good. This lake is so wonderful. At Chocolate Lakes throughout the summer highs are in the 90's. When the night sets in temperatures plunge down into the 50's. Highs through the winter are regularly in the 50's, and through the dark hours in
 
               the wintertime at Chocolate Lakes temperatures dip to the 20's.
Not much rainfall falls here at Chocolate Lakes; through the month of January you get the most rain around here, and the driest month is June. This location, the Central Sierra Nevada, has so much outdoors enjoyable stuff. A tour to Devils Postpile National Monument is worthwhile; if you're here why not take a look at Bishop Pass. So many amusing things to do in the Central Sierra Nevada, not sufficient time. You'll come across a beautiful lake called Ruwau Lake near Chocolate Lakes; the John Muir Trail - Pacific Crest Section is a great hiking trail close by.
The Central Sierra Nevada scenery is always beautiful.

Sabrina Campground
I have such fond memories of family trips to Sabrina and camping just up from the lake on the stream side. Don't know what the campground name was or even if it had a name back in thoes days. It was every summer in 1960's. First went there when I was a baby. My parents packed back in several times. Anyway, my Dad died a few months ago and he always said he wanted to go back before he died. I like to think that he is there somewhere fishing that stream by the campground that we all loved so much. Fond Fond memories....

Big Trees Campground
The only way to drop a kayak in Kings river is a very long drive (maybe 4-5 hours) to the west side or the range, or lugging it through the wilderness (over the spine). I think I would have to give a gold medal to anyone who would lug a kayak from Big Trees to Kings river. Just a heads-up....

North Lake Campground
I have never seen it in the 90's in summer (way to high for those temps), and I am sure it is a heck of lot colder than 50's in the winter...
