     And if that's not enough there's heaps more fun stuff to do in the Klamath Mountains. A good nearby hotel is Baymont Inn & Suites Yreka, and if you're here you can take a hike along the Tanners Peak Trail. Just can't get enough of the Klamath Mountains. The top of Crapo Mountain is easily distinguished from Smiths Lake, and needless to say, this is a good vicinity for folks who like lakes, Pine Lake is a lake close by.
This site is unbeatable, just look
 
   at all the exciting stuff to do right next door to Smiths Lake.

Smiths Lake is a brilliant site to visit for more than one day, Little North Fork Campground is a brilliant site to camp nearby, and whitewater paddling is great on Salmon River - North Fork.

I WALKED FROM MAIN ROAD TO TRAILHEAD ON 4-22-09. HEAVY SNOW DRIFTS, TRAILHEAD IS UNDER ABOUT 48'' OF FROZEN SNOW. NOT RECOMMENDED TO HIKE ALONE, YOU WILL SINK A DOZEN TIMES OR SO UP TO YOUR WAIST! I CHICKENED OT ABOUT 1/2 WAY UP THE TRAIL I COULDN'T SEE UNDERNEATH THE SNOW AND BOULDERS. I BET THE FISHING IS RIGHT ON!...
