Campground is tucked into the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Range below a volcanic rock flow. Campground looks east, out to the Inyo Mountains Range and Owens Valley. Climate is high desert (Elevation 4,000 ft): Spring and fall are ideal times for camping. Summers can be very hot and dry. Some trees and willows are scattered throughout the sites. Aberdeen, nearby, has a convenience store and café. Closest amenities (grocery, gas) are south in Independence (12 miles) or north, in Big Pine (15 miles).

Coordinates are approximate, but should get you on the right road. Unsure which fork to take at posted coordinates, left fork runs along the creek before rejoining Goodale Road.

Reports vary. The area was apparently free at one time, but appears to be $5/night now. As it’s BLM land, there may be dispersed camping available in the area. Need an eyes on report to update this entry.

Directions:
10 miles north of Independence on US Hwy 395, then 2 miles west on Aberdeen Road. Follow signs to campground.
