This campground is on the way to the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest in the Inyo National Forest.  (While the elevation is high compared to the valley, it can still be quite warm in the summer.  And bear in mind that the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest itself doesn't open for the season until the snow melts.)  While these are the White Mountains, it's more desert-y chaparral and brush than what you think of with a pine forest.

Sites here are mostly pretty private, with some shade and separation from the brushy vegetation.  This is a dry camp, so you have to haul in all of your water.  There are pit toilets.  It's about a 45-minute to one-hour drive to Big Pine, the closest town for supplies.
