Troop 362 Sierra Camping Trip 2004 Saddlebag Lake Campground s located in the high Sierras at about a 10,000 ft elevation. We have a group reservation to camp there, about 100 yards from Saddlebag Lake, checking in at 2 pm August 16th, departing no later than 2 pm Thursday, August 19th. Our reservation is for not more than 25 people. The surrounding area gives us tremendous flexibility. Adjacent to Saddlebag Lake is Twenty Lakes Basin, a 5 mile loop hiking trail (Yep, it really does have 20 lakes). Closeby are Mt. Conness and the Conness Glacier. Both lake and stream fishing are available. You can fish Saddlebag Lake, Lake Emery off the main road, any of the nearby streams, or your favorite spot on the Twenty Lakes Basin Loop. Saddlebag Lake is very near the entrance to Yosemite National Park, for those wanting to venture there also. This is not a backpacking trip. We will have a base camp within 100 yards of our vehicles, allowing us to bring larger tents, stoves, ice chests, chairs, etc. A typical view from Saddlebag is here.
