Deer Crossing Wilderness Camp for SummerCamps.com Explorers
Families who use SummerCamps.com are pros at filtering for the perfect blend of adventure, safety, and value. Consider this your fast lane to everything that makes our High Sierra sessions stand out in that national directory.
Dialed-In for Overnight Seekers
Unlike commuter camps, Deer Crossing is located on a granite peninsula in the Desolation Wilderness. Campers wake to glassy Loon Lake, spend afternoons sailing or scaling our natural rock features, and unwind with songs at council fire.
