"The dirt road getting in was pretty washboarded and I have a larger truck so I just had to take it slow."
"We were driving from Las Vegas to Yosemite > It’s a nice spot to spend the night, it’s almost halfway."
"This BLM land is managed by the Bishop Field Office.
There are many clearings where you can find a spot to camp."
"Easy drive to Bishop for supplies, and the free dump & water fill at the Speedway at the other end of town is really nice.
The road in is fairly washboarded, but manageable."
"This should be the trailhead for white mountain . There is a bathroom but that’s it . Be prepared to drive on dirt roads to get here"
"This is a great location, I was here mid week and there’s hardly anybody here, I imagine on the weekend it probably gets more crowded and is an ATV/off-road area that’s probably a little more loud on"
"May 2023- We happened upon this place through "the dyrt" and what a hidden jewel! We camped right next to the stream and stayed one night and it was peaceful and far away from any highway."
"Such a great spot and close to a lot of the local hiking. Nice and flat areas for van parking. Some occasional noise from the road but not bothersome at all."
"4x4 or high clearance coming in. Long dirt road with dips and rocks. Water only flowing in winter months. Lots of tent camping spots along with 8 back in spots. Really amazing views 360 degrees."
"About 8 spots at the end of the dirt road. Only one bar of service. It would be hard to access with anything thing over 22ft."
"This is a must stop on the way to mammoth lakes. big, open, former river bed i assume. Probably not safe during rainy seasons."
"The area was dry when I was there. Nice views."
"Very easy dirt road. Any vehicle could drive it. The directions take you to a perfect parking place and RV length could park at. Far enough from the highway that it was quiet sleeping."
"Great location to go to Gemfield! Rode our bikes the 1 1/2 miles up the road and had a great day rockhounding. Nice level spot to camp there’s several spots for big rigs."

LegendThe dirt road into this spot off of Hwy 120 is washboarded but doable. This spot is at an intersection of forest service road 1S158A and Sage Hen Rd. There was still snow on the dirt road at this time of year (in mid April) so be aware, and there are also low hanging branches that might make it tough for taller rigs.
This spot is a large flat area with zero amenities so bring water and pack in and pack out.
Good for a night or two if you want to hike or bike along the plethora of forest service roads. There were signs on the way in for both free range cattle and horses, but we didn't see any.
Cell service with Verizon, weak but usable.
ScoutMay 2023- We happened upon this place through "the dyrt" and what a hidden jewel! We camped right next to the stream and stayed one night and it was peaceful and far away from any highway. The road becomes dirt and while bumpy in places, our class B van with low clearance did fine going slow. The creek was 40 feet from our spot, running well (Spring of 2023 after record snowfall) and the dog loved playing it it. We arrived 1pm and there was just one other vehicle. By evening there were about 7 more vehicles but they dispersed. We camped at the first turn off where you'll see the Forest Service Sign. You can continue further on the bumpy road and there are other sites along the way, which I can't speak about as we did not go there. BE CAREFUL as there are two camps with same name. The one we stayed at is just west of Bishop. There is another "Mc Gee Creek Forest Service Campground" west of Lake Crowley which looks great, but I've not been there.

There are many clearings where you can find a spot to camp. Even though most spots were taken the weekend we stayed there, everyone is so spread out that you still have silence and privacy. The spots do have stone fire pits.
The road in, Casa Diablo, is gravel and heavily washboarded.
Sad Boulders is a rock climber's playground. There are petroglyphs to be found on some of the boulders in the area, as well as rattle snakes, only saw one baby though. Areas are being restored so tread lightly and "Don't Crush the Brush".
There are no amenities here so pack in and pack out and bring water. It was nice to see that there wasn't too much trash laying around so let's help keep it that way.
We did see a Ranger drive by twice during the 4 nights we stayed there, so that was nice.
There is ok Verizon service, better ATT service, and T-Mobile alternated between roaming and no service.
LegendThis is our 3rd time staying here and we love it every time. There were only a few other campers here when we stayed the week before Christmas and there were plenty of spots open. Even when it’s busy, it seems like you can always find something. We love it here. So peaceful and absolutely quiet. Lots of rock climbers come in for the day and leave in the afternoon.
Something we hadn’t noticed before were all the goatheads, everywhere. Watch your dog’s paws.
Decent cell reception for ATT and Verizon, not great, but usable. Easy drive to Bishop for supplies, and the free dump & water fill at the Speedway at the other end of town is really nice.
The road in is fairly washboarded, but manageable. The road along the back side of the stone “wall” has gotten worse since we were here last. Parts of it are really rutted and washed out. Hopefully they are fixed at some point, not sure I’d feel comfortable driving our class c on it as it is now. Luckily there are plenty of spots out off the main road so we didn’t need to drive down that road this time.
Saw the rangers go by a couple of times during our 2 night stay here. One stopped and took notes and took a picture of our rig- glad to see that they’re tracking people and enforcing the 14 day limit!

LegendOnly stayed one night but it was great. Gravel road off of the highway so you can hear the vehicles pass. There’s a gas station across the street and just a mile or so from town and stores. Very peaceful and plenty of space for everyone. Was able to feel privacy while having neighbors. Beautiful sunsets!! No amenities so come prepared! Great AT&T and was able to work remotely just fine.
Travelerwe stopped while it was dark out, but it was pretty easy to spot. there’s a dirt road flanked by a cattle gate that’s marked on the map on this app if you zoom in. you can see the highway but it’s so quiet. there’s a minor sound of cars, but only if you strain your ears. we woke up in the morning to a pretty strong breeze, but it was still lovely. the hills in the distance are nice, and there’s some flowers and joshua trees scattered around the property. it was a great place to stop for a night!
TravelerThere is a small parking lot & a turn around for cars, it’s not as “dispersed” as advertised. We were able to get our van to the side of the turn around and have no immediate neighbors, but the main “lot” holds about 8 cars & is the trailhead to a hot springs. Night time was quiet, but definitely lots of visitors during the day for the hot springs.
