     For the period of the summer, highs generally are in the 90's at Echo Lake. Through the dark hours of summer temperatures descend down into the 50's. Daytime highs during the wintertime are in the 50's while the cold winter nights at Echo Lake are in the 20's. This lake is so wonderful. And that's not all you can do here at Echo Lake. A perfect vista of wonderful Clyde Spires is available from Echo Lake, and why not take a refreshing hike along the Kings River  
   Trail.
It is very waterless here at Echo Lake frequently; January is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest month is June. If you came to camp North Lake Campground is a tremendous location to do that, and in case you don’t mind getting drenched, you can always go whitewater paddling on Kings River - Middle Fork. A lake close by is Moonlight Lake; hiking is a popular thing to do around Echo Lake; John Muir Trail - Pacific Crest Section is a good
 
               local trail.
Yeah, come up here to the Central Sierra Nevada for a good time. What would a place like Echo Lake be without attention-grabbing nearby characteristics like Mount Fiske Glacier; if you get bored of Echo Lake you could also have a look at nearby Hungry Packer Lake. This lake is so wonderful. After a long day outdoors Days Inn Bishop is a perfect place to spend a night or two, and San Joaquin River - South Fork has a pleasant whitewater paddling spot close by. Be careful coming to the Central Sierra Nevada, you might not ever wanna return back home again. Camping at Sabrina Campground is always a splendid experience, and getting to Darwin Creek from Echo Lake is simple.
Echo Lake is located in the Central Sierra Nevada.

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...

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....
