We always do this hike for sunrise since it is a quick trek up and gives the best views of the area. Camping here is also nice but not the most comfortable. The best option would be to bring a hammock and perch up in some of the nearby trees. There is a small spot on the ground you could set up a tent or just sleep on top of the firepower. Either way, make the trek! The main advantage of camping here is to not have to wake up as early to see the sunrise from on top of the fire tower.
