Sup /out/

I'm a noob backpacker with only 2 small backpacking trips under my belt, and I'm planning on going on a multi-day backpacking trip to the South Warner Wilderness in Modoc County, CA this summer.

Anyone know anything about the area who can give some tips or info on what the area is like?

No, most likely with 2 other people, but they are even more inexperienced than me.

I would only do an over night then. gain some experience that way rather then going for a multi day hike.

was there a GD point?
,,what im saying is ,, bring good lava rated boots and a map. as you climb to steaper ledges, into tight caves, you find that its already been lived in.
,,,, DONT take the artifacts! use them.

I live in the bay area, and the only backpacking I have done was in the Yosemite area. Cora and Jackass Lakes specifically

Kek

Seriously though, if you live in the bay, screw driving all the way up the Modoc, one of my least favorite NF. If you insist on the drive, go to Klammath (although its hot as FUCK in the valley - like 105 degrees hot) or drive down to the more picturesque Big Sur at Los Padres NF.

key takeaways:
>modoc sucks
>klammath east boulder/sky high lake and red rock valley areas = good
>los Padres big sur = better
