Small walk-in campground in the Sierra foothills near Angels Camp offering oak-shaded campsites, creek/river edges and open meadow views — good for intimate nature and campsite storytelling, reflections on water, and dark-sky shots. Best at golden hour and after sunset for stars. Access is first-come, limited vehicle parking; arrive early on weekends. Summer offers warm light but more bugs; spring brings wildflowers and higher water flow.
