     Mossy Pond usually gets a large amount of precipitation; during January this area sees the most rain, and the driest of the months is July. Soda Springs is a splendid local ski area, and do go to Jerry Lake, it's a pretty lake. This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Fordyce Creek offers some nice whitewater; a pretty lake like Derry Lake is a nice site to explore.
If you need a place to stay The Inn at Truckee is a glorious choice.
 
   This lake is so wonderful. Mossy Pond is a magnificent location to visit for more than one day, Sterling Lake Campground is a magnificent location to camp nearby, and Magonigal Summit is another good place to stop at close by. All through the months of summer, highs frequently are in the 80's at Mossy Pond. All through the moonlight hours it's usually in the 40's. Highs through the wintertime are ordinarily in the 40's with winter lows in the 20's overnight

You just can't envision the amount of outdoors amusing stuff the Northern Sierra Nevada has to offer. After a long day outdoors Holiday Inn Express TRUCKEE is a great location to spend a night or two, and do take a hike on the Lola Montez Trail. This lake is one of the great places here in the Northern Sierra Nevada. Hiking along the Loch Leven Trail is nice fun. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Mossy Pond has to offer, you can camp at Cold Springs Campground.
Yep, outdoors entertaining stuff to do are beyond doubt plentiful here at Mossy Pond. If you like skiing, you're in luck; Royal Gorge is close to Mossy Pond, and why not take a refreshing hike along the Glacier Lakes Trail. Whohoo, so much amusing stuff in one place! The Northern Sierra Nevada is so good! Get yourself into a kayak and hit Yuba River - South Fork, and there's some flowing water close by, North Creek is a stream you can stop at while you're here.
