Rae lakes advise
Posted: Thu Aug 22, 2013 12:41 pm
I have already posted on the fishing hole but not getting much input so Ill post it here. I'm taking my brother and a friend of his from Hawaii up to the Rae lakes next wed. We plan on getting to onion valley in the afternoon and getting acclimated at either Gilbert or flower lake. We then plan on heading to the Rae lakes and spending a layover day hiking to either Dragon Lake or Baxter lakes. The ? Is with fishing being primary, would you do the trek to Baxter lakes or just hike up to dragon lake.
Also, we are planning on doing a loop up through the notch by dollar lake to 60 lakes since I would love to finally see that area. Are all of the lakes the basin fish less? When I got my permit a few weeks ago, the ranger stated that the northern lakes have fish.
On the way out, we can stop at either Kearsarge lakes or head over to Charlotte lake for a night, any preferences. Thanks, Phil
