Chirico Summit
In 1945, Joe and Ruth Chiriaco established a rugged memorial to General Patton at Chiriaco Summit. Today there is a marvelous museum which honors the great American Hero, General George S. Patton and the Desert Training Center thanks to Margit Chiriaco Rusche and the Bureau of Land Management.
Great little free campground courtesy of owners of the restaurant and gas station here. No frills, just several nice level campsites tucked behind the George Patton Museum. Comfortable distance away from the main highway noise. Sign in with the camp host, stay up to 7 days. Gas station, post office, coffee shop/restaurant within walking distance. 4 bars of T-mobile service!
