U.S. Military Campgrounds and RV Parks - Sierra Vista RV Park

Stationed there in '93 no campground @ that time I remember. Bought a used 1968 Montgomery Ward Tent Trailer so I could escape to Sequoia, Mt. Whitney. 75 lbs canvas tent on galvanized poles attached to a box with two wheels. Once had a Bear rub up against it while we slept.

Our old quarters since been torn down.

Once got knocked off my feet during an earthquake.
