About the Chumash Wilderness From Mount Pinos and Mount Abel, which both lie along the northeast boundary and approach 9,000 feet in elevation, the terrain of Chumash Wilderness drops toward the southwest. Bleak ridges stand between steep-walled drainages, and you'll find some of the highest and most rugged terrain in Los Padres National Forest. A road leads to the summit of Mount Pinos from the town of Frazier Park, and from there, a trail runs five miles west to Mount Abel. From near Mount Abel, a trail descends two miles to Mesa Springs and travels five miles to Nettle Spring Campground.
