| Trail Description: |
open with tall trees, some loose rock and tall manzanita. both sites have corrals, but NO WATER. You must bring water for you and stock. NO grazing area, but "walk-n-munch" gets a mouthful frequently.CURRENTLY CLOSED DUE TO THE HUGE "STATION FIRE", most of the campground and surrounding area has been scorched to mineral earth. This closure will remain in effect until the roads can be re-established, and the dead falls and facilities can be rebuilt ( Feb. 2010 EDIT) |

| Directions: |
Angeles crest hwy from either La canada, or Acton, go past charlton flats, chilao, and the newcomb ranch snack area. turn left onto the road marked for the religeous camp and go about 1 1/2 miles to both camps. from the camps you may access the PCT, the Silver moccasin trail, and several other fire breaks. Almost 7800 ft high so take it easy on horses until accustomed to altitude. ( You too!) Recommend first ride to chilao ranger station for addtional info and topo maps.
