Description

Hidden in the glorious backcountry of the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains rests Grays Meadows Campground. Rugged and strikingly beautiful, this lil slice of Cali heaven throws down grandiose mountain scenery, challenging trails, alpine lakes, and the famed high peaks of the John Muir Wilderness. No big deal right? Well it gets better! The campground itself sits at 6,000 feet and is bordered by the two highest peaks in the contiguous United States. Ol’ Johnny himself would swoon! Consisting of an upper and lower campground, sites are condensed, but pleasant. Affording shade and basic amenities, campers will be quite pleased. There’s no shortage of wildlife here, so remember to store your picnic baskets in the yogi-proof lockers provided.
