This event is cross posted on another group to generate more interest and participation.
We’ve done this popular overnighter at this FREE campground several times before, by foot, by bike, by car, and we’re doing it again!
The night time views of the desert floor below and the sunsets are spectacular!
>>>>BACKPACKERS:
Meet at the PCT TRAILHEAD at Mill Creek Summit at 0800 and hike the PCT 6 miles up to Mt Pacifico Campground, elevation 7,100’, and camp overnight. This is an out and back route.
Elevation gain is roughly 2,500’ to Mt Pacifico.
There is no water at the top, car camping folks will have plenty of water for you, so no need to carry extra water.
>>>>CAR CAMPERS
Take Pacifico Mountain Road, 3N17 (6 miles dirt fire road) all the way up to the campground.
HIGH CLEARANCE 4x4 VEHICLES REQUIRED FOR THE FIRE ROAD!!
Mt Pacifico Campground is situated just above 7,100’ in elevation, overlooking the entire Antelope Valley below.
Campsites are first come first serve, and there are picnic tables, fire pits, and vault toilets. There is no water!
