Subject: [TRIP] Advice on places to go - Sierras

We're planning a two week trip in late August and plan to hit the following
areas:

Eastern Sierras
Twin Lakes (west of Bridgeport)

Western Sierras:
Tuolumne Meadows/White Wolf (Yosemite)

Possibilities:
Huntington Lake
Courtright Resevoir
Wishon Resevoir

Anyone have comments/suggestions/experience with any of these? We have two
small kids and are looking for places to relax near some water.  Uncrowded,
primitive is OK (actually preferred).  Mild day hikes (suitable for small
kids), fishing, exploring, off-road trails (for the Syncro) would be
desirable too...

Thanks in advance!

Bowman Lake, tahoe national forest. Remote, water, hiking. My first time was
last weekend. Three different lakes within 5 miles of each other. Get Tom
Stienstra's books. They are the Bibles for California outdoors. Go online to
the S.F. Chronicle outdoors section. Stienstra's columns are good too. Next
weekend I'm checking out Dorris Lake in the southern Sierra's near Mono Hot
Springs.
