About
Jackson Flat Group Campground is a tent-only facility in the Angeles National Forest at 7,500 feet elevation, surrounded by pine and fir groves in the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument. The campground accommodates group camping exclusively, with five sites totaling 180-person capacity. Sites 1, 2, and 3 each hold up to 40 people, while Sites 4 and 5 accommodate up to 30. All sites require a short 200-yard walk from the limited parking area. Each group site includes long picnic tables (three at larger sites, two at smaller ones), a food preparation table, bear-proof storage lockers, a large BBQ grill, and a group fire ring. Three restroom buildings with flush toilets serve the campground, and drinking water is available from a hand pump. The campground sits adjacent to Grassy Hollow Visitor Center, which hosts nature programs during summer weekends. Recreational opportunities include an observation deck, two nature trails within the campground, and the half-mile Jackson Flat Geological Trail loop. A spur trail provides direct access to the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail, and a trail leads to nearby Jackson Lake for those seeking a longer hike.
Directions
From Wrightwood, take CA-2 West (Angeles Crest Highway) approximately 6-8 miles. Turn right and continue 1.2 miles past Grassy Hollow Visitor Center into the campground. The campground is located one mile beyond a locked gate at the visitor center.
