Mt Pinos is a Forest Service campground in the Mt. Pinos Ranger District of Los Padres National Forest in California. The land is managed by the Forest Service, and the site sits within the district's own boundaries rather than a separate unit. The campground has vault toilets, and a fee is charged for stays. That makes it a simple base for an overnight trip, with the essentials in place for a short stay. Several other destinations sit close by. Bukit Timah USA, a climbing area, is about 0.3 miles away, and the McGill campground is about 0.4 miles off. The Exploration Trail hike starts about 0.6 miles away, and the Chula Vista campground is about 0.9 miles away.
