Great sites along the creek

Great find! For a free spot, it was clean and had pit toilets, bear boxes and fire pits. Plenty of space between sites, some creekside, and access to trails and the Virginia lakes resort is a 5 minute drive. Bodie ghost town and Mono lake are great day adventures from here as well.
