Great spot close to the Observatory

We stayed at campsite #40 and it was far enough away from people but just close enough to the bathrooms. The water spout was right across from our site too so that was convenient. The only thing wrong with this particular site was the lack of shade during the day. Luckily we had an EZ up to give us some shade. We drove around to see the different sites and most of them provide a good amount of shade. You have to pay $1.50 for showers and most of them were decent. It’s a short hike (maybe 1.5 miles) and an even shorter drive to the observatory. They give free tours or you have the option to pay $10 to do a tour inside. Overall it was a great stay & we would go again just to another site with some more trees.
