About this campground

Triangle Campsite (3-4 Tents)

Triangle Campsite 3 4 Tents Camping Area is located in the Angeles National Forest in California, offering panoramic views of the San Gabriel Mountains. The campground is near Mount Baldy, which is one of the tallest peaks in the range, providing a challenging hike for outdoor enthusiasts. The area is also near popular attractions like the Mount Baldy Ski Lifts and the Mt. Baldy Trout Pools, making it an ideal place for family camping trips.

The campground features basic amenities such as picnic tables and fire rings, but there are no showers or flushing toilets available. The area is first-come, first-served, and there are only four campsites available, making it a quiet and peaceful spot for a camping trip.

An interesting fact about the area is that it was once used as a filming location for the television series "Bonanza." Visitors can still see remnants of the old set during their hikes in the surrounding mountains.

The best time to visit the Triangle Campsite 3 4 Tents Camping Area is during the summer months when temperatures are mild, averaging around 70°F during the day and dropping to the mid-50s at night. However, it is important to note that the area can get crowded during peak season, so visitors should plan to arrive early to secure a campsite.
