The two times I've camped in the backpackers camp (at Glen Aulin, and Volgelsang) when the camps were open was when I was with folks who were on their first backpacking trip.
On the other hand, the best times I've had were back in 2005. During that year, the camps were closed, and I got the chance to go through the Vogelsang and Merced Lakes areas twice during the summer. Best time I've had there,very few people and the trails were clean. My daughter and I camped at Vogelsang on the last night, and we had the place to ourselves.
So, I could live without them easily.
