Hi guys, north CAlifornia resident here, i was planning a camping trip to monitor pass but unfortunately its still snowed in and all passes and roads are closed off

I've been looking for other national or state parks or neat places to park at

so far all me and my group has nominated is Big Basin

Big basin seems fine and all but camping for 2 nights is $70 and thats pretty steep for just a group of 5 people.

do you guys have any recommendations for any national/state camping places that's about 1-2 hours away from San Jose.

pic kinda related, we were going to stay at this place but apparently its all booked up and snow is everywhere so even the primitive campgrounds are closed.
