     This lake is so wonderful. Tunemah Lake is a perfect site to visit for more than one day, Sheep Creek Campground is a perfect site to camp nearby. Lakes? Sure, Cathedral Lake is around here. Tunemah Lake is pretty dry ordinarily; the wettest month of the year is frequently January, that's the one that rains the most; June on the other hand is the driest. You just can't picture the amount of outdoors exciting stuff the Central Sierra Nevada has to offer. Hiking  
   along the Don Cecil Trail is glorious fun.
Stay the night at Sentinel Campground, and from Tunemah Lake you get a great view of Blue Canyon Peak. High temperatures at Tunemah Lake during the warm months are in the 70's. During the moonlight hours it's generally in the 40's. The winter comes with highs in the 40's, and night lows during the wintertime for Tunemah Lake tend to be in the 20's. Any time is a great time at Tunemah Lake if you fancy the outdoors.
 
               Going for a hike along the John Muir Trail - Pacific Crest Section will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area, and after a long day outdoors Days Inn Bishop is a fine location to spend a night or two.
Whohoo, so many fun things in one place! The Central Sierra Nevada is peerless! Paddling on Kings River - Middle Fork is so much fun, and Battalion Lake is a fine lake nearby. This lake is one of the great places here in the Central Sierra Nevada. Kings River - Middle Fork has a nice whitewater paddling spot nearby, and if the weather is good, you can go for a hike along the Sheep Creek Trail.

Sabrina Campground
13 miles away
I have such fond memories of family trips to Sabrina and camping just up from the lake on the stream side. Don't know what the campground name was or even if it had a name back in thoes days. It was every summer in 1960's. First went there when I was a baby. My parents packed back in several times. Anyway, my Dad died a few months ago and he always said he wanted to go back before he died. I like to think that he is there somewhere fishing that stream by the campground that we all loved so much. Fond Fond memories....

The only way to drop a kayak in Kings river is a very long drive (maybe 4-5 hours) to the west side or the range, or lugging it through the wilderness (over the spine). I think I would have to give a gold medal to anyone who would lug a kayak from Big Trees to Kings river. Just a heads-up....
