Best Time to Camp at Landslide

Best season: summer. Summer offers the best combination of open facilities, comfortable weather, and full access to trails and Landslide Creek — expect warm afternoons (roughly 65–85°F) and crisp nights (mid-30s to low-50s°F). This is prime time for hiking, creekside fishing, mountain biking on nearby routes, and reliable wildlife viewing when animals are active in the mornings and evenings. Crowd levels rise on holiday weekends and warm summer evenings, so plan reservations early and arrive midweek for more peace. Peak months: July, August, September, June Avoid: October, November, December, January

The forest grows in decomposed granite soils common to this part of the Sierra, where tectonic forces have carved granite peaks and river valleys over millions of years. Hume Lake sits a short drive away. Grant Grove's giant sequoias are nearby.
