Tips

Caro "Bandit"

Perfect starting point to Johnson Lake and other alpine lakes in the Great Basin area. This is a primitive campsite with 1 site, but beautifully secluded at a creek. There is a picnic table, a fire pit and the tent spot is located on a tiny hill. Restrooms (pit toilet) are to be found at the trailhead parking lot. You cannot make a reservation, it is first come, first serve. The maximum continuous stay limit at the campsite is 14 days. There is no fee.

You can get here via Snake Creek Road, which is open year round, but can be muddy or snowy in the winter and spring. High clearance vehicles are recommended.
