660,000 acres of the San Bernadino Mountains were set aside in 1893 by
President Benjamin Harrison to manage the mountain sheep and wildfires that frequent the area.
This area includes the highest mountains in Southern California. Elevations range from 1,000 feet to Mount San
Gorgonio - 11,502 ft. The forest lands are found in two major sections; one covering the San Bernardino Mountains
(north of I-10) and the other covering the San Jacinto mountains (south of I-10).
Explore over 500 miles of trails that include fresh pine forest, scenic mountain meadows and seasonal desert wildflowers.
This is a unique region shared by desert cactus and snow-peaked mountains.
And the big bodies of water, like Big Bear Lake, that serve as a recreational oasis for parched and thirsty southern Californians.
We can thank President Benjamin Harrison for setting aside 737,280 acres in 1893 to stop the depredations of sheep and the
ravages of forest fires that were destroying the mountain watershed. Thank you, Benjie, you're the man.
