About Spring Camp Campground

Spring Camp Campground sits at 4,700 feet along the Rincon-Shortcut OHV Route in Angeles National Forest, offering three primitive hike-in sites for off-roaders and backcountry campers. At $5 per night, you get a picnic table, fire ring, and vault toilet. No water. The campground provides a rare pocket of privacy and quiet along an otherwise trafficked OHV corridor.

Spring Camp Campground offers a primitive camping experience. The three campsites are hike-in and emphasize minimalism and self-sufficiency.

ElevationPerched at 4,700 feet where the air grows thin and the views expand, Spring Camp sits in that sweet spot of mountain elevation—high enough to escape the valley heat, yet accessible to properly equipped vehicles and determined hikers. At this altitude, stars shine brighter, mornings arrive crisp and clear, and every breath reminds you that you've climbed into California's sky islands.

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies a transition zone where chaparral surrenders to montane forest. A seasonal stream cuts through camp, carving microhabitats into the mountainside and exposing weathered rock layers when it flows. Which isn't guaranteed. Steep ridgelines and deep canyons define the surrounding terrain, classic Southern California high country where tectonic forces have sculpted dramatic relief over millions of years. Rocky outcroppings frame the sites, and on clear nights the stars are sharp and bright above the canyon walls.

Geological RegionSpring Camp rests within the dynamic geological tapestry of Angeles National Forest, where tectonic forces have sculpted a landscape of dramatic ridgelines and deep canyons over millions of years. At 4,700 feet, the campground occupies a fascinating transition zone where lower elevation chaparral gives way to montane forests. The seasonal stream that winds through camp has carved its own story into the mountainside, exposing layers of ancient rock and creating microhabitats in an otherwise severe landscape. This is quintessential Southern California high country—where desert meets mountain, and geological time is written in every weathered boulder and erosion-carved ravine.

Go if

OHV riders and backcountry tenters who want a private base camp near Glendora without paying resort prices. Summer nights cool into the 40s at this elevation, and with only three sites, you're rarely sharing the place.

Skip if

No potable water on-site means hauling everything in, the rough OHV access road rules out anything without clearance, and the campground is currently closed due to the Bobcat Fire with no confirmed reopening date.
