Looking for a super unique campsite? How about camping on the side of a volcano? 2S79A is just that, a campsite that is inside the large caldera of Mammoth but also on the side of one of the many calderas that have erupted out of the ground. The name of this caldera is the Obsidian Dome known for the famous lava glass it has created. So, if you are in the area of Mammoth or June Lake and want to disperse camp somewhere super unique, check out this spot! The trail is a dirt path that any vehicle could do, but there is an overhang from a tree that limits tall vehicles from getting down to the camping spot.
