Sierra Foothills Overlanders, Bear Lake Trip Aug 17 through 19.

3-4 night camping trip with lots of day trips from the campground. Bear lake is located between the McKinnay/Rubicon trail and Barker Pass at approximately 7500' elevation.
The plan is for an advanced party to get there Thursday August 16th and hopefully get a large dispersed campsite on the west side of the lake, the majority of the people will come in on Friday afternoon and then leave Sunday morning.
