Nelson Lake is a gorgeous place to camp in the Dinkey Lakes Wilderness for a few days.
We setup camp on the north side of the lake.
This is a nice high Sierra lake with a lot to offer.

Hiking into Nelson Lake
My parents and I went backpacking into the Dinkey Lakes Wilderness to go camping at Nelson Lake. This is the first time the three of us have gone backpacking together in quite some time.

We encountered some snow in the woods as we got closer to the lake. This is a real late season backpacking trip!
