Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest Friends of Bogg Mountain PO Box 735 Cobb, 95426 http://www.boggsmountain.org The purpose of Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest (BMDSF) and other State Forests demonstrates the productive and economic possibilities of good forestry practices toward maintaining forest land in a productive condition through harvesting. BMDSF is open for public recreation including camping, biking, horse riding, hiking, hunting and target shooting. With the exception of areas undergoing active timber operations, all of the 3493-acre forest is open for public access. Boggs does not collect any fees for these recreational uses. The recreational facility infrastructure includes 25 miles of unimproved roads, over 21 miles of non-motorized use trails and two no-fee campgrounds with 19 campsites. BMDSF is used during the summer for mountain biking, hiking, target shooting, hunting, picnicking, woodcutting, bird watching, and horseback riding. During the August-September deer season, the property is heavily hunted, and occupied by numerous hunters' camps. This is also true of adjoining properties some of which are leased to hunting clubs. The Friends of Boggs Mountain, a volunteer non-profit that works closely with Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest (BMDSF) management, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire), maintains a BMDSF website with a downloadable map on trails and camping.
