There are some boondock spots on Mazurka Canyon Road in Independence just south of Big Pine. One is close to the Owens river, on the south side of the road before the pavement ends about 3 miles from 395. Or, continue up the hill slightly after the pavement ends, and there is a spot just your size on the right side of the road. If you go on up the canyon to explore, there are several big flats the natives used to summer in, and a peak with repeater towers on that you can see up and down the valley for miles.
