Eldorado National Forest (ENF) – The Rubicon
Trail traditionally starts in the city of Georgetown
California. It soon enters the Eldorado National
Forest. It travels about eleven miles through the
Pacific Ranger District of the ENF before entering
the Tahoe National Forest. The ENF does not have
jurisdiction over the trail. The Rubicon Trail is a
county road in both El Dorado and Placer counties.
The ENF is involved with the Rubicon Trail because
the trail runs through the middle of the forest. For
this reason, the ENF is a very vocal player in the
decisions made to govern the trail.
