Pine Flat

Pine Flat Lake CA: One of the largest lakes in California, Pineflat Reservoir is located at the edge of majestic Kings Canyon, where the mighty rushing Kings River spills out of it's granite gorge. Sierra National Forest lies to the north, with Courtright & Wishon Reservoirs. A bunch of rangers & water company folks live out here. Several campgrounds, RV park, marinas & maybe a cafe or store, surround the lake north shores. The closest market with post office is near the dam, in Piedra, CA

    description:
    The huge & popular California reservoir has many miles of pavement around the north shoreline, right up to the mouth of the Kings River. River kayakers & rafters love this last final stretch. Oak trees & pines on the steep hillsides, with dirt roads all over. Great day trips everywhere. Big Creek leads to upper elevations, cedars & Sequoias.
