Horton Creek Overview

Horton Creek Campground has 49 campsites and is located along the creek at an elevation of 4,975 feet in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. All campsites have beautiful views of the Sierras including Mt. Tom and Wheeler Crest. Horton Creek does run along side the campground, but it is small and choked with brush and trees. The campsites are large and spread out throughout the campground. There is little shade, but a few trees offer shade to some campsites.
