El Monte is popular during peak season. Reserve 2-4 weeks in advance for weekends and holidays.
Most parks have check-in after 1:00 PM and check-out by 11:00 AM. Call ahead if you'll arrive late.
California weather can change quickly. Pack layers and check the forecast for El Monte.
Don't miss local attractions near El Monte. Ask the camp host for hidden gems and trails.

This campground is very nice and peaceful to camp at. The Glenn Canyon Falls, a small 200 foot waterfall, is near here and can be located by following the Glenn Creek to observers left all the way until it ends at the falls.

The campground is fine. Though the outhouse is pretty disgusting. Beware of aggressive drivers who work at the Dam. They are very disrespectful, drive way too fast and on the weekends. The place is closed on weekdays until the debris removal is complete but open on weekends only. There are conflicting reports if the area is open beginning Friday evening

Beautiful, clean campground. San gaberial river near by. Fishing platform for fishing. You have to bike in or hike in with your gear. It's about 6.5 mile to the campground from your car.

See my review for Azusa Canyon West Fork Devils Dam TT. I didn't camp here, just rode by on bike. Cannot access Cogswell Dam 1 mile up road. Killer hill to ride down though. Campground seems kinda boring. No trails that I saw. Just hike in 6 miles on paved road. This is what city folk call roughing it. At least there is a river and fishing.

Beautiful area, especially in Azusa Canyon. 6+ miles back. Bikepacking trip, it was awesome. YouTube... RedWhite&Blue 78
