Never knew it was even a thing , buy nice location for a church camp. I'm not LDS so I'm never going to be able to stay there .
Ok so right next to this private camp is a walk down to campsites only. Let me just tell you about this hidden gem. Or mabe i shouldn't
We took our 4-wheel drive up to the high country in the Sierra's. This was one of our stops along the way. The campground has been destroyed from the last several severe winters 2021, 2022, 2023. Devastation was everywhere, but as I walked through the campground, I imagined how much joy and the many memories that were still left in the minds of the ones who once vacationed here. It was as if I could feel the energy from the past. It was a feeling the mountain retreat and the blissful peace and space that the mountains always share. #sierramountains
