Yup the entrance from 41 north is west side , that most ppls going to stay, curry village and the valley itself, i like to stay on the east side, lots of things to do and u can always drive down to the valley and hike to all sort of lakes and waterfalls. the East side is right next to Mono lake about an hr drive. White wolf is the place , no reservation , 1st come 1st served . running water, flush water toilets. 3 locals lake in 5 miles diameter. 14$ a nite

I sure feel spoiled camping with a 5th wheel trailer! Not quite as adventurest as a tent but still consider camping.
