Tips

Vogelsang is one of nine High Sierra Camps. It is nestled into the High Sierra at an elevation of 10,000 feet, making it the highest location of all High Camps. It is kind of a luxury camp with twelve tent cabins that you can book way in advance via a lottery system. A night is 152 Dollars. The camp has no showers, but you can take a dip in the beautiful surrounding alpine lakes like Fletcher Lake, Vogelsang Lake, Everlyn Lake and Ireland Lake. The camp was established in 1940.

For those who prefer glamping, you can book guided tours where luggage is transported and you stay in comfortable tents. Toilets, a kitchen and even showers are available for paying guests.
Backpacker's Camp is about 300 meters further.
When I visited in 2022, however, the camp did not seem to have been set up. Everything lay quite untouched and confused on the floor. Similar at the Merced Lake High Sierra Camp.
