About
Stag Point OHV Trailhead and Camp is a primitive dispersed camping area designed for off-highway vehicle enthusiasts in the Feather River Ranger District of Plumas National Forest. The facility features six total dispersed sites: one at the trailhead with a fire pit and table, and five additional units at Stag Point itself. All sites operate on a first-come, first-served basis with no fees or reservations. This rustic facility provides basic amenities including pit toilets and fire rings, but campers must bring their own water and pack out all trash. The campground serves as a staging area for OHV trail riding in the surrounding national forest. Access requires navigating forest roads, and trailers are not recommended beyond the trailhead. Trees may be across the road at any time depending on conditions. The campground was affected by the 2020 North Complex Fire and has been undergoing post-fire recovery work. The area is subject to seasonal closures and accessibility depends on weather conditions, with the site typically only accessible when roads are passable.
