## Overview

At approximately 1,000 feet in elevation, Kirch Flat Campground resides on a
large flat area on the river’s edge of the scenic Kings River and is
surrounded by rolling, oak-covered foothills and spectacular river canyon and
mountain views of the Sierra Nevada. Though it can be very hot in the summer
months, Kirch Flat Group Campground is a great place to camp during the spring
and fall months and is popular with San Joaquin Valley residents, fisherman,
day users, and whitewater enthusiasts who come to enjoy many challenging
rapids and beautiful canyon scenery of the King’s River.

A good amount of shade is provided by oak and pine trees throughout the area;
however, there is no running water or cell service at the campground. Campers
are encouraged to bring their own garbage bags, always keep a clean campsite,
and keep trash and food packed up so wildlife is not tempted.

The nearest services are in Sanger, a decently sized town about 45 miles (1
hour 20 min.) away, with all essential services (i.e., gas, supplies,
groceries, restaurants, etc.). Although there is no cell phone coverage at the
campground, there is a location with cell phone reception approximately 10
minutes away or the nearest pay phone is at Balch Camp, a PG & E community
about a 10-minute drive.

Watch out for rattlesnakes and poison oak. Poison Oak abounds in this area.
Please avoid plants with three leaf clusters: "Leaves of three, let it be!"

lake, and the other has more open and sunny sites with closer access to the
resort community of Lakeshore. All sites have a view of Huntington Lake.

Nevada, is known for its spectacular mountain scenery and abundant natural
resources.

elevation slopes and the starkly beautiful alpine landscape of the High
Sierra.
