     Summertime highs at Russian Lake usually tend to be in the 90's. All through the moonlight hours it's ordinarily in the 50's. All through the winter highs are in the 40's with temperatures at Russian Lake dipping down into the 20's during winter nights. Camping at Trail Creek Campground is always a pleasant experience, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Salmon River - South Fork. Life's too short to enjoy all the  
   exciting stuff in the neighborhood of Russian Lake. There's tremendous hiking along the Tanners Peak Trail, and don't forget to take a fine little trip to Fish Lake Creek.
The view of Russian Peak from Russian Lake is beautiful, and do have a look at Siphon Lake, it's a striking lake. From a rain point of view Russian Lake is a quite normal place; the month of December is the wettest with most of the rain, and the driest month of the year is July. So much
 
               enjoyable stuff in the Klamath Mountains, just phenomenal. Hiking is a popular thing to do around Russian Lake; Garden Gulch Trail is a magnificent local trail; camping is available at Idlewild Campground.
And that's not all you can do here in the Klamath Mountains. A gorgeous lake like Waterdog Lake in the neighborhood of Russian Lake is a brilliant location to go to, and Baymont Inn & Suites Yreka is a glorious spot to get some rest. The Klamath Mountains scenery is always beautiful. This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Salmon River offers some wonderful whitewater, and delightful hiking is available along the Deacon Lee Trail.
This lake is so wonderful.

Looking for a place called Coffee Creek Resort in the mid-70's.   Had a lodge and A-frame cabins, you could hike a trail up to Lake Josephine from the lodge.  Hoping it is still around now that we are back in California....
