CDCR, in cooperation with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) and the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACFD), jointly operates 35 conservation camps, commonly known as fire camps, located in 25 counties across California. All camps are minimum-security facilities and staffed with correctional staff.
CDCR initiated the Conservation (Fire) Camp Program to provide able-bodied incarcerated people the opportunity to work on meaningful projects throughout the state. The CDCR road camps were established in 1915. During World War II, much of the work force that was used by the Division of Forestry (now known as CAL FIRE), was depleted.
I keep givin you the fire
I'm gon' heat it up
Under my control
Here's the night that you've been waiting on
Fire
I'm gon' light it up
Gotta make it hot
The stage is mine
Let's set it off
The former prison inmate facility, one of 35 such amenities throughout the state operated jointly by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and Cal Fire, will now be staffed by over 100 Cal Fire senior officers and firefighters whose primary mission will be to support federal, state and local government agencies as they respond to emergencies such as fires, floods and other natural and manmade disasters.
Among the personnel at Pilot Rock will be one division chief, one battalion chief, six captains, six equipment engineers and some 80 firefighters, along with one heavy engine mechanic, four cooks and water and sewer plant operators, as well as other office staff. According to Chief Jones, not all 100-plus personnel will be stationed at the site at the same time.
Beacon Rock State Park is a 4,458-acre, year-round camping park located in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area. The park includes 9,500 feet of freshwater shoreline on the Columbia River and more than 26 miles of roads and trails open to hiking, mountain biking and equestrian use.
Beacon Rock offers excellent opportunities for rock climbing and is considered to be some of the very best "traditional climbing" in the Northwest. Climbers do need to be aware of where and when they can climb due to management restrictions.

Red Rock Canyon State Park features scenic desert cliffs, buttes and spectacular rock formations. The park is located where the southernmost tip of the Sierra Nevada converge with the El Paso Range. Each tributary canyon is unique, with dramatic shapes and vivid colors.
Historically, the area was once home to the Kawaiisu Indians, who left petroglyphs in the El Paso mountains and other evidence of their inhabitation. The spectacular gash situated at the western edge of the El Paso mountain range was on the Native American trade route for thousands of years. During the early 1870s, the colorful rock formations in the park served as landmarks for 20-mule team freight wagons that stopped for water. About 1850, it was used by the footsore survivors of the famous Death Valley trek including members of the Arcane and Bennett families along with some of the Illinois Jayhawkers. The park now protects significant paleontology sites and the remains of 1890s-era mining operations, and has been the site for a number of movies.
After wet winters, the park's floral displays are stunning. The beauty of the desert, combined with the geologic features make this park a camper's favorite destination. Wildlife you may encounter includes roadrunners, hawks, lizards, mice and squirrels.

Red Rock Canyon State Park
The colorful badlands, cliffs and canyons of Red Rock Canyon State Park provide more than pretty scenery and a backdrop for movies. Hidden behind the scenes in the layers of rock is what amounts to paleontologists as a treasure trove. For almost a century, paleontologists have been combing through these layers and making important discoveries about the history of mammalian life in these parts.
