     Matlock Lake is one of the lakes here in the Southern Sierra Nevada. This lake is so wonderful. Dragon Peak is clearly visible from Matlock Lake, and camping at Symmes Creek Campground is always a splendid experience. Don't stop me now, cause I'm havin' a wonderful time here at Matlock Lake. Lakes? Sure, Bench Lake is close by, and dry warm beds await you at Best Western Frontier Motel.
Go for a hike on the Pacific Crest Trail - section 11; Kearsarge
 
   Pass is also a magnificent site to look at. Now, you may believe that's a heap but there's even more exciting stuff to do here in the Southern Sierra Nevada. Don't leave Matlock Lake without first going for a hike along the Mount Whitney Trail, and you simply have to go to Center Basin Crags since you're here at Matlock Lake. A brilliant place like Onion Valley here at Matlock Lake is too great to miss, and camping is available at Fort Independence Campground.
