    What a nice lake Julia Lake is. And that's not all there is to do here in the Southern Sierra Nevada. There are some glorious whitewater spots on Kern River, and Hobo Campground is a wonderful local campground. Just can't get enough of the Southern Sierra Nevada. Skiing at Shirley Meadow is one of those things you just should do. It is very dehydrated here at Julia Lake mostly; the wettest month of the year is commonly March, that's the one that rains the most  
   while July is usually the driest month.
If you adore the outdoors, you'll love Julia Lake. While you're here at Julia Lake you will meet lots of people from nearby Bakersfield, and if you've had enough of Julia Lake, Lake Engle is close by. Dougherty Spring is an inspiring site to check out during your stay, and don’t forget to explore Dougherty Flat while you're here at Julia Lake. Julia Lake is a beautiful lake in the Southern Sierra Nevada.

I camped here about 5 years ago and really enjoyed it. I did not do any white water rafting but I did do some hiking around the campground which was quite nice. Camp sites were clean and far enough apart to have decent privacy....

Kern River

...ocation is close enough but the putin coordinates are just wrong. Those coordinates would put you in the middle of some class VI rapids (IE unrunable) There are actually two putin locations.
1. LAT 35.439250 LON -118.802450 This put in is impossible to get to without trespassing. So you need special permission. It's located right below the Rio Bravo Hydroelectric Dam. This section is actually a class IV followed by two class V's. I've done the entire Kern, it's definitely V. You can only do this extra section during very high water years because the Power plant diverts most of the water along this stretch.
2. LAT 35.429084 LON 118.825602 Also, on private property with no public access. Only Search and Rescue, Kayak Olympic Team, and River's End Rafting have access to this putin. There is also a public access point on racheria rd. There is a little trail to get there just past the gated community gates. I believe there is still a sign. It's not a long hike. That point gives you 5 miles of very fun class II and III rapids, swimming areas, rope swings, etc. Be aware that many peo...

Hi, please take a look at the attached photo.  I took it today in La Jolla Canyon, at the water fall (dry now).  Notice that a large rock appears to be loose and or without support.  It looks like the rock is supporting the trail above.  Someone should take a closer look at that rock.  In heavy rain it could come down.  It looks unstable....
