Cerro Alto Campground

The campsites start about 1/2 mile up a one mile, one lane, paved road that branches off of Route 41. Due to the terrain many of the parking pads are pull offs parallel to the road and the campsites are accessed by steps or trails that go up the hill. The day use parking lot and the last four or five campsites are located where the road dead ends. 

The best sites are 8 and 9. Site 8 is a pull-through site with a large, flat living area. Site 9 is fairly private with a small flat living area. Sites 18 and 19 are good too but they share a parking pad and are close together. We reserved one of the last available sites # 21 which has a share parking pad. The picnic table is on slanted ground so the site is not usable for visitors using wheelchairs.

There are several trails that aren't accessible. Watch out for the poison oak which is everywhere, growing as vines, high bushes, and low ground cover.
The road has wide areas to allow passing. Fortunately there isn't a lot of traffic and it makes a nice walking path.  Campground   35.42513, -120.74028
