Discover the best of San Bernardino National Forest with this
authoritative guide to 100 unforgettable hikes.
Southern California's highest and most rugged mountains are in the San
Bernardino and San Jacinto ranges, in a unique region where wildly
varied naturescapes--desert cactus and pine trees, snowcapped peaks and
palm oases--are found in close proximity. With the Pacific Crest Trail
weaving its way through the mountains and desert, there are endless
opportunities to explore Southern California trails.
After more than 50 years in print, San Bernardino Mountain Trails
remains the bible for Southern California hikers. This updated guide by
veteran hiker and author David Money Harris contains new trips, as well
as old favorites. This edition brings John Robinson's classic guide up
to date with the latest trail conditions. Eight old trails, especially
in areas that have become overgrown after fire damage, have been
replaced with recently built or more heavily used trails.
