Big Pine Canyon

US Forest Service · California

Big Pine Canyon in California. Ringed marker is this site; the other dots are the 1330 public campsites we map in California.

Big Pine Canyon Recreation Area includes two group campground sites. Named for glaciers that can be seen at the end of the valley, Clyde Glacier Group Site and Palisade Glacier Group Site sit along Big Pine Creek. Recreation Fishing is a popular activity in the creek and nearby lakes. Climbers make use of the steep, glacier-carved canyon walls for excellent climbing opportunities.
