Montez Trail. Yeah, come up here to the Northern Sierra Nevada for a good time. There's no such thing as a bad day of skiing at nearby Boreal; there are some wonderful whitewater spots on Fordyce Creek. Kidd Lake in fact is in the
middle of a scenic outdoors paradise. Really splendid skiing awaits you at Soda Springs, and dry warm beds await you at Holiday Inn Express TRUCKEE. This lake is so wonderful. If you came for an overnight stay Cold Springs Campground
is a delightful spot to camp. Lakes? Sure, Cascade Lakes is around here. Kidd Lake is a wet place that gets a lot of rain; all through the month of January you get the most rain around here, and the driest of the months is July.
