Milsap Bar Campground

I'd like to give a 2025 update to this campsite. We stayed in early August. Some of the information we researched before camping there was incorrect. The Plumas National Forest website seems to have been updated in the last year or two and instead of being better, it seems to have less information and the info is harder to find. The road in is bad. The unpaved portion is about 10 miles, which is a lot when you have to go slow. You need high clearance and it's kind of overgrown. I kind of wished I hadn't taken my new truck. I think I might have gotten a few scratches. The road gets gradually worse as you get closer to the camp site and especially worse after the campsite. I would only recommend off road vehicles if you're thinking of exploring the road beyond the campsite. As of

My favorite mountain getaway the waterfalls and remote location are a dream... unfortunately both of the mountain roads that lead into this paradise are closed due to the heavy rains of last years winter that caused mud slides..i stopped into the local forestry office in november and they still are not sure when the roads will be repaired because there was a lot of roads damaged . I will try to keep this updated if anything changes. Hope to see you there someday! UPDATE Jan 2019 forestry service roads were posted as open and repairs complete to get here but i am not sure if hwy 162 ( oro-quincy hwy ) is accessable due to damage from previous incident as well as the CAMP fire Nov 2018.

I've grown up here every summer for the past 31 yrs. Since the bear fire came in 2020, milsap bar has been closed due to to many burnt trees that will be falling down soon. The dirt rd to get here isn't really car friendly. And is about 9 miles long. Water is cold and refreshing. Can't wait for it to open again

Awesome place unfortunately it burned out in fire. But here's some shots of my drives down there in 2021.

This time of year the water is always up and looks amazing 🤩
