SO....Heres the new plan. We are trying to camp somewhere (anywhere in CA really works), that meets the following criteria.
Not too crowded,
Near Water (lake, river, ocean)
Good hikes
Maybe a fire road or two so we can have some fun with my new 4x4 rig.
If anyone knows of such a camping heaven, do share. Our spring break is Mar 19-27. Planning on camping for 5-6 days...

Anywhere with any altitude is going to be cold in March. Your best bet is to go to the desert. There's no body of water that you prefer, but there is lots of beautiful desert. I recomend Anzo-Borrego desert highly. You can camp anywhere, there's tons of trails, and the weather is warm even in the coldest months (Feb and March). If you really want to be near the water, try Pismo beach. You can drive on the dunes and camp on the beach.
