Merced Lake is one of nine High Sierra Camps and the first one that was built in 1916 and the most remote. It is kind of a luxury camp with tent cabins that you can book way in advance via a lottery system. A night is 159 Dollars. The camp is located at an elevation of 7,150 feet above sea level and is warmer than the other High Camps. Due to its remote location, most hikers spend the night before either at Sunrise or Vogelsang High Sierra Camp. You can enjoy swimming and fishing in the surrounding lakes.

I didn't stay at Merced Lake High Sierra Camp itself, but at Backpacker's Camp right next door.
At first I was a bit disappointed that you can't camp closer to the lake and that you have to walk quite a distance to the creek to bunker water. The next day, however, I realized why the distance to the lake is important: huge swarms of mosquitoes and no escape.

When I visited in early August 2022, however, the camp was deserted and did not seem to have been managed that year either. Probably still the aftermath of Corona.
I wish the park and the rangers every success in the coming year and also the hikers the opportunity to stop off here again.
