Lyell Base Camp?
If you're going to camp, this is a lovely spot. There are good campsites in the trees to the east of Lake 10,200+. Please do find a spot out of sight from the lake and the trail, there are plenty. The downsides of this site:

1) It's popular among hikers on the JMT.
2) It's popular among bears. Pack everything in a can, and they will leave you alone. Hang stuff from the trees and they will hassle you.

Mount Lyell is the leftmost peak (at the center of the image). I posted on the Maclure page since I camped here for a visit to Mt. Maclure.
