These foothill regions below are the rivers & mountains of the infamous California Gold Rush of the mid-1800’s. Many mountain\u00a0dirt roads will lead to your secluded, private camp site, near a creek or river. Or plan on camping in a developed Campground near a recreation\u00a0lake lined with amenities, pine trees & oaks. River rafting & kayaking can be found throughout this area, as well as backpacking, mountain biking and hiking trails. Fishing is very popular as well.<\/p>\n

Waterfalls, back roads, granite features, historic mining camps, big fishing rivers all abound. Wilderness backpacking in the High Sierra can be accessed by Hwy 108<\/a> (Sonora Pass) Hwy 4<\/a> (Ebbetts Pass) Hwy 88<\/a> (Carson Pass), Sierra US Route Hwy 50<\/a> & Interstate 80.
