phenomenal. Go for a hike on the Pacific Crest Trail - section 13, and some of the water close by flows, like Deer Creek. This lake is so wonderful. Get your pulse rate up on the great whitewater of Stanislaus River - Middle Fork,
and what would winter be without some skiing at Kirkwood.
You truly should go for the Northern Sierra Nevada. There are wonderful locations to explore along the Emigrant Trail, and hey, Gotta ski right? Bear Valley is a perfect
site to do that. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Mokelumne River - North Fork, and Marshall Canyon is a great place to spend some time.
