A Forest Closure Order has been put into effect for specific areas in the Trinity Alps near Canyon Creek for areas affected by the Middle Fire, including Ripstein Campground, Canyon Creek Trailhead, Trail 10W03, Trail 10W06 and Trail 10W08 south of Canyon Creek Falls Ripstein Campground is normally available on a first-come, first-serve basis. There are 10 tent-only sites.
From the Big Bar Ranger Station, travel Hwy 299 east 15 miles to Junction City making a left turn onto Canyon Creek Road just passed the old bar and restaurant that is there. Once on Canyon Creek road, travel about 10 miles to the campground entrance.
I love this place everything you need for a great outdoor experience!
It's a good base camp for Canyon Creek. Free camping is a plus as well!
Great campground! It's established with clean bathrooms and numbered sites, but far out enough that it wasn't crowded. It was a great place to camp before heading up to Canyon Creek for a backpacking trip! Nice and clean, please keep it that way!
