Description: The area in and around Pilot Knob is rich in both human and natural history. At one time, Patton's troops trained here in preparation for desert fighting in World War II. A State of California Historic Marker lies on the site of Patton's camp. A portion of the Pilot Knob area has been designated an area of critical environmental concern. This is a popular camping spot. Since only minimum camping facilities are available, only self- contained camping units are allowed.
