Nice and peaceful on a winter weekend night. Only saw 2 other vehicles until daylight when day hikers come to check out the falls. Close to 395, but far enough that we didnt hear road noise. Good stopover for us on way to mammoth.

We were alone and stayed only 20 minutes. Toilet really dirty and we heard so many noises. A mouse went into our campervan!! But great view of the stars
