About the campground
The elevation is 4,600 ft. Stanislaus National Forest 381 The campground has one large loop through a stand of mixed conifers, including Incense cedar, oak, and Ponderosa pine, along the Middle Fork of the Toulumne River. Although ample shade, with little understory privacy is only fair. Some sites overlook the river while others are tucked in amoung the trees. Closest Forest Service campground with vehicle access to Yosemite National Park, this is a great basecamp for exploring the area. Firewood is available for a fee. Trees in the area were harvested to make crates for the California Peach and Fig Growers Association. The campground is located on the former site of the Associations's lumber mill. Later, the location became a Boy Scout Camp which operated from 1926 through 1968. Don't be surprised to meet an old Boy Scout still enjoying the campground and telling wonderful stories about the area and their time here. This is bear country; use the provided bear-proof container and practice safe food storage techniques.
