     Camping at Southland RV Park is always a fine experience, and there are some delightful whitewater spots on Kern River. This lake is so wonderful. If you came to camp Bear Mountain RV Resort is a magnificent spot to do that; since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always check out nearby Lake Ming. After a long day outdoors Holiday Inn Express BAKERSFIELD is a great spot to spend a night or two, and you'll meet a lot of folks from Bakersfield here.

... above coordinates are correct. I've guided the Kern for 7years. The takeout location 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 cla...
