forest provide many opportunities for family fun, outdoor recreation and
relaxation.  
  
The campground and nearby resort offer many amenities for a convenient and
enjoyable camping experience. The facility is located between Mammoth Lakes

The eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains are known for exceptional trout fishing.
Anglers can cast a line for rainbow and brown trout in the creek or lake.

bikers and equestrian enthusiasts. The 3.5-mile Lake Trail can be accessed
from the campground, and many other trails are in nearby John Muir Wilderness.

## Facilities

This is a fairly large and well-organized facility with both reservable and
first-come, first-served campsites. A few sites overlook the lake, while

## Overview

New Shady Rest Campground is a large facility convenient to numerous outdoor
activities and attractions in the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains. The
campground is popular for hiking, mountain biking, sightseeing and hitting the
adjacent town of Mammoth Lakes for shopping and dining. The facility
accommodates both tents and RVs.

## Recreation

The Mammoth Lakes area has much to keep campers busy. The majestic scenery and
challenging trails are an obvious draw for hikers and mountain bikers. Skiing
is a major winter pastime in the area.  
  
The eastern Sierras are known for their exceptional trout fishing, and several
creeks and lakes are within a short drive from the campground.  
  
Families enjoy learning more at the visitor center across the street, or
taking a paved walking and biking trail to two nearby campgrounds, a town park
with a playing field and skate park, or Mammoth Lakes.

## Facilities

The campground is organized into two large loops, adjacent to Old Shady Rest
and Pine Glen Campgrounds. Several amenities are provided, including restrooms
with flush toilets, campfire rings and picnic tables, and many more are within
a few miles. Showers are not located in the campground but are nearby.  
  
Bear-proof lockers are available for food storage, and firewood can be
purchased on-site.

## Natural Features

The campsites are located under a shady canopy of a mature Jeffery pine forest
at an elevation of 7,800 feet.  
  
Many species of wildlife call the mountains home, such as black bear, mountain
lions, mule deer, pine marten, pika and numerous fish and birds.

## Nearby Attractions

For campers interested in local events, the Mammoth Jazz Jubilee is hosted in
Mammoth in mid-July. Several other events and amenities are available in town.  
  
Many great day trips for sightseers are in the area, such as Yosemite National
Park, Mono Basin and Devils Postpile National Monument.

OLD SHADY REST CAMPGROUND

## Overview

Coldwater Campground is located high in the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains
near the town of Mammoth Lakes, California. The surrounding national forest
provides many opportunities for family fun, outdoor recreation and relaxation.
Hiking, fishing, road cycling and picnicking are just some of the favorite
activities available to campers.

## Recreation

Coldwater offers easy access to fishing for rainbow, brook and brown trout in
Lake Mary. Major trailheads lead into the backcountry. Several interesting
trails offer a variety of hikes, including the 5-mile Duck Pass Trail, which
climbs the forested hillside behind the campground and passes several lakes
before heading over Duck Pass to join the John Muir Trail.

## Facilities

Campsites are organized into two loops, with sites fairly close together and
near either creek. Pressurized water spigots and flush toilets are provided
throughout the facility, and there are picnic tables, campfire rings and bear-
proof food storage lockers at each campsite.

## Natural Features

This campground sits in a pine forest at an elevation of 8,900 feet. Large and
small boulders are strewn about the campground. Coldwater and Mammoth Creeks
run alongside the campsites. Crystal clear Lake Mary, one of several lakes in
the Mammoth Lakes Basin, is nearby.  
  
The Eastern Sierras are abundant with wildlife, including black bear, mountain
lions, mule deer, pine marten, pika and many species of fish and birds.

## Nearby Attractions

Visitors can explore the magnificent John Muir Wilderness, which stretches 100
miles along the crest of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, a land of lofty snow-
capped mountains, deep canyons and vast expanses of glacially-carved terrain.
Hiking and horseback riding trails are abundant.

## Charges & Cancellations

Once your reservation start date has begun, neither the Recreation.gov Contact
Center nor the campground manager will be able to modify your reservation.
