     You just can't envision the amount of outdoors amusing stuff the Northern Sierra Nevada has to offer. There are fine spots to look at along the Glacier Lakes Trail, and Secret Lake is nice enough to spend more than a day at, Jackson Point Campground is a nice local campground. One of the main highlights of the surroundings of Secret Lake is English Mountain, and this is a popular location for people from Truckee-Grass Valley. Having a good time in the Northern  
   Sierra Nevada is uncomplicated. If you need a place to stay Chalet View Lodge is a brilliant choice, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Fordyce Creek.
