It sits among a cluster of other campgrounds and trails, making it a convenient base for exploring the surrounding area. Vault toilets are the only facility listed for the site, and a fee is charged for stays. The Alpine Ranger District manages the land, and the nearest town is Alpine, about 11 miles away. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall.
