    Go to Scenic Lake if you want to go to a nice lake. Triangle Lake is a nearby lake that you could stop at, and there's perfect hiking along the Yuba River Trail. Just can't get enough of the Sawtooth Range.

This lake is so wonderful. A lake close by is Diamond Lake; hiking is a popular thing to do around Scenic Lake; Hot Springs Creek Trail is a wonderful local trail. The Sawtooth Range scenery is always beautiful. There's so much to
 
               do here at Scenic Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Queens River Campground is a pleasant place for that; from Scenic Lake you get a great sight of Browns Peak.
This is no place for people who don’t like to have fun. Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument is a delightful national park. Scenic Lake is a good place of normal rainfall; January is when you get the most snow here, and July is when it's the driest.

MORE STUFF NEARBY:

Elk Lake
Elk lake is approximately 12 miles from the Grandjean campground. You can not reach it by car. The trail has mild elevation gain and parallels the river during many sections. There are no designated campgrounds at elk lake however 3 spots have obvious use. Deer and elk are commonly viewed near the lake, especially in the early morning or near dusk....

Imogene Lake
14 miles away
Imogene is a beautiful lake with a complex shoreline, worthy of hours of exploration, as are its family of 15 lakes and pools downstream from it....

Hell Roaring Lake
15 miles away
Hi, we (wife and I) walked into the lake the 3rd week of July 2008; we took the unmaintained road to about 200 yards from the trailhead. If you take this in lieu of the walk in, plan on a 40 minute drive to cover 5-miles; your vehicle (should be high-center 4-wd) will get scratched up from the branches adjacent to the road. The parking lot holds 6-vehicles...if you encounter another vehicle coming at you, there are very few areas where you can back into/get off the road to let the other pass; it is a 'long way' to back up on a challenging road. To get to the trail head from the parking lot, you will ford 2-branches of the river/stream (10 ? 20? across)...walk across deadfall with the aid of a walking stick...or walk thru the water...just below the knee. We walked in on a tuesday and encountered 15+ people coming/going on the path. Easy 2-mile walk, many mosquitoes...quicker coming back....
