Carter Meadows Horse Camp

Carter Meadows Horse Camp is designed for large groups with horses. There are corrals for 25+ horses, several picnic tables and a large group barbeque. The camp is centrally located between the Trinity Alps Wilderness and the Russian Wilderness. There is a network of interconnecting trails to Long Gulch, Trail Gulch and the PCT which will take you into these wildernesses. There are several lakes within a days ride. Fishing and hiking are also available.

Turn left at Road 39N08 and travel approximately 1/4 mile to the campground, located at the 6,000 foot elevation.
