[NOTE: When visiting any of the four southern California National Forests (including Cleveland), an Adventure Pass is required for vehicles--$5.00 for a daily pass and $30.00 for an annual pass. Passes can be purchased through the mail or at selected vendors located near the forests and throughout southern California. The Adventure Pass Program provides that 80% of the fees collected from sales of the Adventure Pass is returned to the forest in the district where the fees were collected. Please contact one of the above National Forest offices for the current Adventure Pass vendor list. In Ramona, Adventure Passes are available at:
