If you are in Alpine county it's always a good idea to stop by Frog Lake. You truly should like the Northern Sierra Nevada. There's magnificent hiking along the Emigrant Trail; a wonderful close by hotel is Pine Cone Acre Motel. After a long day outdoors Harvest Inn-St Helena, Napa Valley is a magnificent location to spend a night or two, and Deadwood Canyon is another glorious site to go to nearby. These mountains rock, just look at all the entertaining things

| | to do in the Northern Sierra Nevada. You're perhaps keen on lakes, Wheeler Lake is one of those nearby, and glide down the rapids of Stanislaus River - Middle Fork in a kayak. Paddling on Mokelumne River - North Fork is so much fun; spots like Underwood Valley are tremendous to have a look at. Frog Lake gets lots of water; January is when you get the most snow here, and July on the other hand is the driest. Life's too short to enjoy all the entertaining | |
