6/7/09 - Great Basin National Park, NV

We drove from Sacramento Pass to Great Basin National Park. We unhooked the Casita at Lower Lehman Creek Campground. The creek runs alongside our site. There is no entry fee for this park and camping only cost us $6.00 per night. No hookups but, they do supply fresh water and a dump station. They have pit toilets in the campgrounds. We drove the road up to Wheeler Peak and stopped to hike a 1/3 mile trail to the Osceola Ditch. It is an 18 mile ditch that was dug to divert water from Lehman Creek for use in mining gold in the 1800’s.
