Intermountain Camp is located east of Redding, outside the community of Bieber in Lassen County.  Opened in 1962, the facility houses 80 level-one inmates, and provides four 17-man fire crews.  The camp provides quality metal fabrication products to California State agencies, and also serves as a large Federal Excess Property Depository for the north state.

Intermountain Camp performs work projects including fire hazard reduction, forest, range and watershed enhancement, and other conservation work for many stakeholders.  The camp's sphere of influence for community work projects extends north to the Oregon border, encompassing both the Klamath and Tulelake National Wildlife Refuges and Lava Beds National Monument.  To the west are Burney Falls State Park, Lassen National Forest, Hat Creek, the Pit River and the mountain communities of McArthur, Fall River Mills and Burney.  To the south, the camp works in the Lassen Volcanic National Park and to the north side of Eagle Lake.  The eastern boundary extends into Modoc National Forest and includes the communities of Adin, Bieber, Nubieber and Lookout.  Intermountain crews are also a valuable resource to the state in fire suppression, flood control and other emergency responses.

Intermountain Camp is staffed by CAL FIRE and CDCR personnel.  CAL FIRE staff: Division Chief Jeff Wood;  Heavy Fire Equipment Operators Norm Stevenson and Tom Farber; Water/Sewer Plant Operator Art Gordon; Office Technician Leah Sandberg; and, Fire Captains Keith Evans, Josh Kern, Craig Lechleiter, Dennis Nolan, Ben Sitter, Larry Turman, Pat Titus, and Jason Young.  CDCR staff: Lieutenant Mike Ackley; Sergeant Daren McBroome; and Correctional Officers Steve Barnett, Robert Cole, Byron Conner, Scoop Martin, Brad Putnam, Spencer Leighton, and Dennis Swope.
