     This lake is one of the great places here in the Southern Cascade Range. If you're here, you might as well go to Bunchgrass Valley, and Bunchgrass Campground is a great local campground. This lake is so wonderful. This is a great vicinity for people who like lakes. Red Lake is a lake in the vicinity; whitewater paddling is magnificent on Pit River.
Summertime highs at Mud Lake generally tend to be in the 80's with night lows in the 40's. For the duration
 
   of the wintertime highs are frequently in the 40's; after the sun is down all through the wintertime temperatures at Mud Lake descend into the 10's. Mud Lake sees pretty high levels of rainfall; January is the wettest month with most snow; the driest month is July. Have a glorious hiking adventure along the Heart Lake Twin Meadows Trail, and Bailey Creek Cottages is a nice place to get some rest.
Just can't get enough of the Southern Cascade Range. A trip
 
               to Lassen Volcanic National Park is recommended, and hiking along the Chaos Crags Trail is good fun. This lake is so wonderful. You can catch a glimpse of Ashpan Butte from Mud Lake. That right there is plenty already, but it goes on; Mud Lake has it all. Since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always visit nearby Hufford Lake, and Mud Lake is right by the Bunchgrass Trail.
And if that's not enough there's plenty more cool things to do in the Southern Cascade Range. Don’t forget to visit Ashpan Flat while you're here at Mud Lake, and Mill Creek RV Park is a good campground nearby.

11 miles away
Twin Meadows was originally named White Meadows and our old family cabin is the one between the meadows. They ran cattle with T.A.Spencer the first pres. of the Tehama Co. Cattleman's Assoc. The forming of the first association was in response to the loss of grazing rights when the park was formed. The shortage of beef during WW1 prompted Woodrow Wilson to state that if necessary they would raise sheep on the lawn of the White House. ...

I ALSO HAVE GONE CAMPING AT HOLE IN THE GROUND SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL I WOULDNT HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY I LOVE IT THERE AND NOW SO DO MY KIDS....
I've been going to hole in the ground, off and on for 40 years. From when I was a kid hiking in the forest, tubing down the creek, swimming in the pools, and fishing for planted trout that the hatchery would toss in the creek. Now it is a restricted salmon run, there is no planters and restrictions on the type of tackle you can use. The fishing was great as a kid. I like how peaceful it is, with the sound of creek and an occasional bluejay chirping. I enjoy cooking on the wood stoves. There are only a hand full left, (what a shame). I will be meeting one of my brothers and dad at the hole in three weeks. My large family with foster children love going to the hole. Some have been before and some will experience it for the first time. **lot of good memories**...
