Roadtrip Reflections: Rainbow Falls

Red's Meadow Shuttle Basin

Photo Gallery: dsmithphotography.smugmug.com

Reflections:

This area is serviced by a mandatory shuttle unless you are camping in the basin, or you drive in before the shuttle begins operating . The hike from Devil's Postpile to Rainbow Falls (above photo) is a favorite for many.

Tip of the Trip:

The hike around Sotcher Lake is beautiful. There is also a hike that begins near the Minaret Vista Panorama. It is a downhill trail that ends near Starkweather Lake.

Question:
Has anyone camped in this area? If so, what do you think of the campgrounds? Do you have a favorite?
