Boggs Mountain State Forest

Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest is a state forest located on State Route 175, eight miles (13 km) south of Clear Lake in Lake County, California, USA. It is one of the largest mountains in the area, with a length of 10 miles (16 km) east to west and width of 4 miles (6 km) north to south. The mountain's highest point is 3,750 feet (1,143 m) elevation. Like nearby mountains such as Cobb Mountain, Boggs is volcanic in origin. It receives heavy rainfall, winter snow and has at least two perennial springs. Boggs Mountain State Forest is managed by the California Department of Forestry (CDF). CDF (now officially renamed Cal-Fire) purchased 3,433 acres (13.89 km2) in 1949 from the Calso Company for 38,000 dollars.
