In 1980, we were the only tent at the camp. Great views, morning and evening winds, distant rock and glacier sounds of movement. Even if you dont go to the summit, spend some time at Camp Schurman. I have included a photo of our one tent back in the day.
I love this place! The sunset is unbelievable! During summer, the sun set is long and late. Worth a night up here even if you aren't summiting. I recommend summiting too, but camping here is an experience in itself.
I have been to Camp Schurman several times, they have a couple of old video games there that are really fun to play. The only problem is that they take quarters and they usually don't have any extra quarters there. So my advice is to bring a couple of rolls of quarters with you. Other climbers will pay you $1 for each quarter.
