I barely got into camping this year. So I've anticipated going to a forest location as my first time was near a beach.

It's about an hour and a half away from Pomona so it is very accessible and close for those who live in San Bernandino which is wonderful.

Be careful of the roads when you drive up there! There are a lot of turns and curves and locals tend to hound you if you aren't driving fast enough. Regardless take caution as you are going into the mountains and there are rocky cliffs.

On the way getting there, there is a pit stop of a cabin themed liquor store and a restaurant there. I really suggest going to the liquor store as their firewood/ ice is decently priced and their inventory is wonderful.

Once you arrive there you can go ahead and go to your designated plot. The ranger will stop by later to verify your reservation confirmation and give you your parking passes.

The bathrooms are well kept and within reasonable distance. However, the rocky terrain is a bit irritating but that's nature for you. Just be careful where you walk.

In terms of wildlife, I've only seen bluejays, squirrels, and small lizards. Bears and snakes are known to frequent the area though, so still be careful and consider getting bear mace in case of an emergency.

The campsite came with a fire pit, a anti-bear storage box to store leftovers/food, and a table. Ample space to set up a tent.

Overall camping here is extremely feasible and it's a nice relaxing forest atmosphere. Just be prepared but overall it's great for beginner campers.
