Shaded by Lodge pole pine and Fir trees, Clover Meadow Campground is located along Clover Meadow. The campground provides picnic tables and fire rings. Access road is closed in winter and the nearby Clover Meadow Station is also closed seasonally.
From Fresno take Hwy 41 north to Road 200. Turn right and travel East to North Fork. Continue through North Fork to Minarets Road (Forest 81); The Clover Meadow Station is 52 miles from the Bass Lake Ranger District in North Fork. Driving time is 1 hour and 45 minutes from North Fork. Once you get to the ranger station turn left on road 5S47 and travel ½ mile to the campground.
In low snow years this campground WILL be swarming with gnats and mosquitos. The trees here are dying at an alarming rate as well (bark beetles). That said, come later in the season on high snow years and you should be good to go. The campgrounds are primitive. It's a remote site. That's a good thing.
Went to Spike camp to refuel USFS Hot shots on the Lions Fire.
God bless our Forest Personnel.
