Details
We've done this popular overnighter at this
FREE campground several times before, on foot, by bike, and by car.
Please join the waitlist to attend- those who I have backpacked with before have priority
Backpacking: Meet Melanie by 8am at the Mill Creek Picnic Area
7miles one way, 14 miles total. Over 2,000 elevation gained. All trails link below description.
Car Camping HIGH CLEARANCE RECOMMENDED show up any time:
From the Mill Creek Picnic Area take Pacifico Mountain Road (3N17), which is an unpaved fire road, 6 miles up to the campground. The fire road entrance is accessible from the Mill Creek fire station, located just a few yards above the picnic area.
Mt Pacifico Campground is situated just above 7,100' in elevation, overlooking the entire Antelope Valley below.
Night time views of the city lights below are spectacular!
Campsites are first come first serve, and there are picnic tables, fire pits, and vault toilets.
THERE IS NO WATER! If someone is willing to drive water up, please post it in the comments below :)
PLEASE HAVE ALL YOUR ESSENTIALS...
...especially your own stove if you plan on prepping hot meals and beverages.
It's all about being completely self sufficient, not having to rely on others.
