Memorial Day Camping Near Mammoth Lakes, CA

Better late than never I say and even though it was a couple of weeks ago, I wanted to do a quick post on our camping trip over Memorial Day up to Mammoth Lakes!

It’s a little early in the year for a camping trip in California, especially when you plan on staying at a campground that is 7,000 ft above sea level, but we tried our luck anyway and booked the LAST available spot in the Sherwin Creek campground just outside of Mammoth Lakes, CA. We left Santa Monica at 11am on Saturday and a short 6 hour drive later, if you take your time to enjoy the scenery of the Eastern Sierra scenic route, we pulled into the campground.
