About Salters Cabin Horse Camp
Salters Cabin Horse Camp is located in a shaded, second-growth, ponderosa pine forest and makes for a great escape from those hot summer days! There is a corral on site for folks camping with horses to use. The cabin on site is for historic purposes and the Forest Service recommends that visitors do not enter or camp in the cabin.
