Lassen National Forest kicked off its seasonal recreation and camping offerings in the Almanor, Hat Creek, and Eagle Lake Ranger Districts, last Friday, and the agency is reminding visitors to recreate responsibly as you explore the beauty and adventure the Forest provides.
For more information, please contact your local Ranger District office:
Almanor Ranger District – 530 258-2141
Eagle Lake Ranger District – 530-257-4188
Hat Creek Ranger District – 530-336-5521
Help preserve the trails and vistas for all by observing the following:
- Leave nothing but footsteps. It is your responsibility to pack out all trash when you leave including toilet paper when there are no restroom facilities.
- Be aware of campfire restrictions. Call if you don’t know. Ensure your campfire is “dead out” before you leave. Douse with water, stir, feel for heat, repeat if necessary.
- Many campsites fill up quickly so plan ahead!
- Early spring may involve lots of mud. As the day warms, be wary of getting stuck or damaging roads.
- Cold water can kill. Know that lakes and rivers are cold early in the year and high flows can carry you away.
