Indian Wells Valley Campus (North view)Indian Wells Valley Campus

The Indian Wells Valley Campus, located in Ridgecrest, California, 160 miles northeast of Los Angeles, is situated on a dramatic site overlooking the Sierra Nevada, Coso, Panamint, and Argus mountain ranges. At an elevation of 2,800 feet, Cerro Coso aesthetically emphasizes the rugged beauty of one of America's most famous deserts, the upper Mojave Desert. The IWV campus features an Astronomical Observatory and a Solar Photovoltaic Field, two features that make our campus, and our college, unique amongst California Community Colleges.

From the Indian Wells Valley Campus, the College serves the communities of Ridgecrest, China Lake, Inyokern, and Trona, this area is more commonly referred to as the Indian Wells Valley (IWV). The IWV is the second largest population base in Kern County. Population and distance (over one and a half hours from the next largest town) dictated the need for educational opportunities at the local level as early as the mid-60's.
