Briefly about the general area:
You'll need more than a day to discover everything Claremont Trail has to offer, you can camp at Cottonwood - Plumas National Forest. Sherwin
Ravine is a great spot to spend some time at It's always splendid to have a look at Cold Springs.
There's some flowing water close by, Claremont Creek is a stream you can visit while here, and whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we recommend Indian
Creek Feather Tributary. These mountains rock, just explore all the amusing stuff to do in the Northern Sierra Nevada. Claremont Trail is a great site to camp, Chilcoot - Plumas National Forest is a great site, and there are some great whitewater spots on Feather River - Middle Fork.
