Stephanie and I went backpacking to Russian Lake in the Russian Wilderness<\/a> of far northern California last weekend. Stunning, and we had a lot of solitude<\/a>. There are also several campsites around the lake, so even if there are other groups, it’s not too crowded. A surprising number stop at Waterdog Lake to camp.<\/p>\n

Note: get full details of the hike to Russian Lake in the Russian Wilderness in my book…
