Camping in the Eastern Sierra

I am planning a camping trip to the Mono Lake / Mammoth area in September. As I will be using public transit I'm restricted to the 395 / June Lake corridor between Lee Vining and Mammoth Lakes area.

I called the Inyo Visitor Center and was told that getting a site, which are all first come/first served, won't be a problem.

There are bus stops at or near, the 120/395 intersection, Lake view Lodge, Rush Creek Trail-head, June Mountain Ski Area, Shilo Inn, Mammoth Lakes P&R, Juniper Springs, and the Mammoth Mountain Inn. The person at the Visitor Center said that I could probably get the bus driver to stop at other camping areas.

Any suggestions?

    Well, it's set.

    Over night to Reno then down to June Lake Junction then to Oh! Ridge Campground.

    I'm sending food ahead to June Lake PO to be picked up on Wednesday Sept. 23. I hope that the 2 different Rangers I spoke with are correct and there are Bear Boxes.
