General Hitchcock Campground

About

This small, sheltered campground is tucked away just off the Catalina Highway, along the rocky streambed that forms the floor of upper Bear Canyon. Campsites are nestled under a canopy of ponderosa pines, junipers and oaks. Some sites are located right along Bear Creek among large rocks. The Creek generally only flows during rainy periods or during the Spring snowmelt, but be vigilant of flash floods. This campground is not recommended for trailers or RVs. No pack or saddle stock permitted in campground. Pets must be leashed at all times. Limit 2 vehicles and 10 persons per site. 14 day stay limit.
