Making a trip to the lower 48 to visit friends in California at the end of the month, convening in SF. We’re solid on skating recommendations, but second half of the trip we’re looking to get out to the Tahoe/El Dorado/Stanislaus area for either some car camping or backpacking. Also looking to do some river floating
First time out there so I’m wholly unfamiliar, and my friends haven’t lived there long enough to get a lay of the land. Any recommendations, or just areas we should avoid entirely? Areas with less foot traffic would be ideal, and I wouldn’t mind incorporating some fishing into the trip as well. Thanks in advance.
