Maps:  Maps of SAFAs are now available from this website. Click on the SAFA name in the left-hand column of the list and you will be taken to the map for that fee area. From there you may print a PDF version of the map – in color!

Fees in SAFAs:  Road entrances to SAFAs are signed. Adventure Passes or Interagency Passes are required for recreation use of all SAFAs and Special Recreation Permit areas on these forests. There is one exception: The San Gabriel Off Highway Vehicle area on the Angeles National Forest requires a separate Special Recreation Permit. Adventure Passes and Interagency Passes are not accepted for payment of the fee at that location.

Some Forest Service operated campgrounds within SAFAs require a separate overnight camping fee. At these campgrounds Adventure Passes and Interagency Passes are accepted for payment of day-use fees for picnicking – time limits are posted. Privately operated concessionaire sites are not required to accept the Adventure Pass. Most concession operated sites do accept the Interagency Senior and Access Passes for a discount.
