Burn Victim is a climbing area in the Trabuco Ranger District of Cleveland National Forest in California, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of other climbing areas, with First Hill, Elysia and El Cariso all about 0.1 mile away. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show April highs around 74°F and October highs around 82°F, while July and August average in the mid-90s. That station sits well below the climbing area, so temperatures up high run cooler. Falcon is a hike about a mile away, and Falcon Group and Blue Jay Campground are both about 1.3 miles off. El Cariso Nature is a hike roughly 1.7 miles away.
