What is the best time to visit Bridgeport?

Bridgeport campgrounds are generally open from late May to late September, weather permitting. Spring, summer, and fall are ideal times for anglers. The town draws an influx of visitors during the Fishing Season Opener each April, the Bridgeport Trout Tournament every June, and Bridgeport’s annual Old Fashioned 4th of July celebration. While Bodie State Historic Park is open year-round, it’s only accessible by skis, snowshoes, or snowmobiles during winter months. Sonora Pass is closed in winter but opens to snowmobilers.
