Whitehorse campground is a public camp shared with non-horse users. This is a Forest Service approved TRIAL HORSE CAMP. (If all goes well, hopefully a permanent one!)

Horse Campers... Please note you must clean up your campsite of all manure and take it home with you...please. Leave No Trace (hopefully next year we will have a manure bunker in place for a more permanent horse camp.)

Hose camping became available as of September 8, 2015. And will unfortunately close the end of September for the winter season. This is TRIAL period of a few weeks has been approved by the Forest Service for Horse Camping access.

The weather has been very pleasant. At 5300 ft elevation and up... Good place to beat the valley heat. The trails are clear and very well marked. Maps are available from the camp host or online at Plumas Country forest service.
