You definitely ought to adore the Northern Sierra Nevada. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Loch Leven Trail, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Fordyce Creek. Getting to North Creek from Mossy Pond is trouble-free, and there are some good whitewater spots on Yuba River - South Fork. Not far from Mossy Pond, you'll locate Derry Lake which is a gorgeous lake.
The high level of rain makes Mossy Pond a quite wet place; the month with most of the rain is January, and the driest month of the year is July. These mountains rock, just explore all the exciting stuff to do in the Northern Sierra Nevada. Soda Springs has great slopes and a friendly staff, and if you're here, you might as well explore Magonigal Summit.
