    The San Joaquin River flows west, down from the highest granite peaks of the Sierra Nevada and into the Central Valley foothills. If you find your way off the main highway 41, exploring way back behind Bass Lake, CA<\/a> – then you may consider this scenic loop to Redinger.<\/p>\n

    off the beaten path<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

    Truthfully, this place is usually an afterthought, sorta near Yosemite National Park<\/a>. Not exactly a top destination for tourists, but it is very accessible most anytime of the year due to low elevation.<\/p>\n

    Spring wildflowers can be decent.<\/strong> <\/span>Summers do get super hot here, so take that into consideration when planning your visit. Due to extreme wildfire danger, no campfires are allowed at any time.<\/p>\n

    Redinger Lake Road (Rd# 235) can be found south of the town of North Fork, CA. The paved route down is long, steep and winding. At the bridge crossing, the road loops to Joe Basin Road, which connects to the small community of Auberry, CA<\/p>\n
