Location is good and very scenic drive going up. Great night sky views and not too crowded. Campsites and trails could use some maintenance to clear over grown grasses, plants and bushes. Main trail to observatory was impassible about 3/4 mile in. Risk of poison oak exposure made it too tough to keep going with kids.

Nice Camp. Toilets need some serious ventilation and a large fly program.

I have stayed at many Forest service campgrounds throughot southern California. none have been so run down and neglected. I probably won't come back
