DescriptionSeemingly limitless boulder field atop Pine Mountain Getting ThereFrom Ojai, take CA 33 north about 30 miles to turn off for Pine Mountain. Then follow dirt road about 6 miles to camping area. GuidebooksOceans Eleven-Bouldering Around Santa Barbara (2003) by Bob Banks CampingCurrently, there are only thirteen legal campsites in the two campgrounds on top of Pine Mountain. Ten more minutes up the road is the Reyes Campground where one will find and additional four legal campsites, the Rasberry Spring trailhead and another pit toilet. These sites are also flat and shady and are just five minutes walking from Happy Hunting Grounds. These sites also have a picnic tables and a fire rings and are all within site of eachother.
The last three campsites on the mountain are rather isolated from each other and are situated right ontop of Pine Mountain's main climbing areas. Also fixed withh picnic tables and fire rings.Due to their privacy and proximity to the climbing these three sites are by far the most popular, even though they lack the shade found in the other sites. Two of them have climbable boulders right in the site. There are numerous "illegal" sites with makeshift fire rings and no picnic tables spread to be found as well, including the Reyes Peak trailhead(end of the road). The end of the road also has the cleanest pit tiolet on the mountain. <<< Invalid image id: 107219355 >>> Camping fees are 5 dollars a night, though one must buy the Adventure Pass to cover this fee.

Featured Route For Pine Mountain
Welcome to the Darkside V11 R CA : Central Coast : ... : Enlightenment Ridge
The tallest boulder in the meadow. This line follows the 45-degree over hanging arete. Start on low pinch on arete and right on the long crimp rail with left heel in the half moon. 5 hard compression moves lead to a 3-foot throw off of a slopping edge and a 2½ finger crimp to a razor sharp 3 finger knob.
