Year around the Wilderness is known for rapidly changing and unpredictable conditions,so always go prepared for storms, even in the summer months! |
Wilderness Permits are available online or from ranger stations, and day use permits are available at some trailheads. Due to weather and trail conditions, check with the forestry at that link before you go.
Call the Pacific Ranger Station at (530)644-2349

Visit Desolation's Volunteer website and join in on topics of discussion, check your trail mileages, trail conditions, use links, and give us your two cents worth! Here is an image of our site, using the menu bar at the top of the page, in this case, the Information tab.
Here is the Desolation Volunteers Forums Page view. You are invited to add notes, too. My favorite item is the discussion topic "Defining Wilderness". Some entries are inspiring!
Thank you for coming and maybe the links can help you find another place to enjoy the outdoors.
