Lookup Deadwood Camp Inmates

Deadwood Camp Custody Overview

Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 is operated by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and CAL FIRE. The camp sits near Fort Jones in Siskiyou County and is part of California's conservation camp system. People assigned there are CDCR state prisoners who have moved beyond local jail booking and into state custody. That point matters for any Deadwood Conservation Camp inmate search, because Siskiyou Citizen RIMS is built for the county jail population and does not act as the lookup tool for a CDCR fire camp.

CDCR describes Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 as a minimum-security conservation fire camp. Its mission is to provide trained incarcerated hand crews for wildland fire suppression, emergency flood control, conservation projects, and local community service. CDCR lists Lt. D. Reid as Camp Commander and Sgt. J. Leventon as Assistant Camp Commander. Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 opened on June 1, 1962, and CDCR says the camp has been an important part of Siskiyou County since that time.

The official Deadwood Conservation Camp source page identifies the camp, its operator, and its Siskiyou County fire camp role.

The image is useful because it ties the Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 inmate lookup path to the official CDCR facility page instead of a county jail roster.

Deadwood Camp Population Context

No official CDCR source located a rated capacity number for Deadwood Conservation Camp #23. The Siskiyou County population statistics also should not be used as a substitute, because those county figures describe the adult jail in Yreka. Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 is a state fire camp category, while the Vera county fact sheet counted Siskiyou County as having one county jail and no ordinary adult state prison institution in 2021. CDCR's facility locator still lists Deadwood as a fire camp in Fort Jones, which is a distinct CDCR facility type.

For search purposes, a person at Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 is part of the CDCR incarcerated population. Siskiyou County jail population measures, such as the county jail's average daily population or its bed count, do not describe Deadwood's camp count. If a person was sentenced in a Siskiyou County criminal case and later moved to CDCR custody, the local jail roster may stop showing that person. The next official custody path is the statewide CDCR locator, not a fresh county jail search.

Deadwood Camp Inmate Lookup

The correct first tool for a Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 inmate lookup is CDCR CIRIS, the California Incarcerated Records and Information Search. CIRIS covers CDCR sentenced incarcerated people. It does not cover current Siskiyou County Jail detainees, and the county jail roster does not cover Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 after a person has moved into state prison custody. If the person may still be in the Yreka jail before transfer, use the county jail records path for that stage.

A CDCR search works best with a CDCR number. A legal name search can also help, but common names need careful review. Check the current institution or placement shown in the state result before treating a match as a Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 record. CDCR also lists its Identification Unit for locator help at (916) 445-6713 during weekday business hours, excluding holidays.

1. Open CDCR CIRIS and search by CDCR number when the number is known.
2. Search by legal first and last name if the CDCR number is not available.
3. Review identifying details and custody status before relying on a result.
4. Confirm whether the placement is Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 or another CDCR facility.

Deadwood Camp Address

Use the camp's own contact details for visiting questions, fire-camp scheduling, and facility-specific confirmation. Do not call Siskiyou County Jail for Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 roster results unless the question is about an earlier local jail booking or a possible pre-transfer county hold.

Deadwood Camp Visiting

Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 visiting follows CDCR fire camp rules, not Siskiyou County Jail non-contact visiting rules. CDCR's fire camp visiting page says camp visits are scheduled by phone or email because conservation camps do not use the ordinary VSA scheduling route in the same way. Deadwood lists DeadwoodVideoVisiting@cdcr.ca.gov and (530) 468-2633 for scheduling.

Visitors should contact the camp before travel because fire crew members can be activated on short notice. The research notes that camps in open phase offer in-person visiting between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for no more than five approved visitors per incarcerated person. CDCR also describes hybrid video and in-person visiting for conservation camps on Saturdays and Sundays, with scheduling windows for in-person and video requests.

Video visit requests must include the incarcerated person's full name and CDCR number, plus approved visitor names, dates of birth, identification type and number, relationship, visitor email, and visitor phone. CDCR also says visitors must self-screen for symptoms on the day of the visit. Masks are encouraged and available, and residents in medical isolation are not eligible for visiting.

Deadwood Camp Mail

No Deadwood-specific money deposit fee table or commissary schedule was located in official CDCR or Siskiyou sources. Because Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 is a CDCR fire camp, mail, money, and approved property questions should be checked through current CDCR rules or by calling the camp. Do not use Siskiyou County Jail's NCIC phone page, Access Securepak page, or JailATM deposit link for Deadwood unless CDCR or the camp specifically directs that process.

Deadwood Camp Intake

Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 is not where a new Siskiyou County arrest is booked. A local arrest normally begins with booking into the Siskiyou County Jail, court review, and any sentence or transfer decision. If a person receives a state prison sentence, CDCR reception and classification can follow. A later Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 assignment means the person is in the state prison system and has been placed in a conservation camp role.

That custody flow affects records. County jail records may show a booking while the person is local. Court records show charges, hearings, and case outcomes. CDCR CIRIS is the better custody source after state transfer. For a current Siskiyou County booking, the Siskiyou County jail inmate records path remains separate from the Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 inmate lookup path.

About Deadwood Camp

CDCR says Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 crews support CAL FIRE during wildland fires in Siskiyou County and provide a large part of the fire labor force. The camp's community and conservation projects include maintenance at the College of the Siskiyous Fire Training Center, fuel reduction in local communities, fuel reduction at Castle Crags State Park, habitat improvement at Shasta Valley Wildlife Area, cleanup and fuel work at local schools, cemetery district cleanup, and maintenance or cleanup for Yreka nonprofit organizations and community centers.

Programs at Deadwood Conservation Camp #23 include the rehabilitative and educational services that CDCR identifies for conservation camps, such as substance abuse programs, religious programs, GED and college courses, and volunteer spiritual services. CDCR also lists activities such as hobby craft, softball, basketball, horseshoes, and reading. The stated goal is to build work habits and help incarcerated people prepare for release while completing fire, conservation, and local service work.
