Trail Overview
Branching directly off the main forest route, FS 4N95 serves as a well-maintained, out-and-back access corridor winding through the towering pine and fir timberlands of the Stanislaus National Forest. This broad dirt and gravel passage primarily functions as the dedicated gateway to a historic High Sierra youth and community camp tucked along the mountainside. Along the initial stretch, travelers will find an open dispersed campsite tucked into the trees before the path proceeds uninterrupted toward the facility grounds. Dense woodland borders both shoulders of the wide corridor, offering sweeping shade and classic Sierra Nevada mountain scenery before reaching the camp entrance sign and turnaround area.
