Trailhead
Point Mugu State Park, California
Ray Miller Trailhead is a source-backed overnight access point in Santa Monica Mountains. Kampilo publishes only the official trail geometry and permit or camp authorization options represented in the mapped catalog.
The mapped line is a planning reference rather than a guarantee of current access. Confirm road, parking, trail, weather, fire, permit, and closure conditions with the land manager before departure.
Seasonal access
No recurring date-based closure of Ray Miller Trailhead is published. La Jolla / Ray Miller parking and temporary emergency orders still control access.
La Jolla / Ray Miller parking: Use the signed Point Mugu State Park access and follow the current self-registration and overnight-parking instructions for La Jolla Valley Hike-In Camp. The supported Backbone Trail camps do not share a recurring annual closure. Wildfire, extreme heat, storms, trail damage, and park operating restrictions can temporarily close a trailhead or camp; camping remains legal only at the designated reserved sites.
Check Santa Monica Mountains current conditions and the official Backbone Trail camping page before departure, including the status and reservation of the exact designated camp.
