Description

BLM Winter Bucket List #24: Santa Rosa-San Jacinto Mountains National Monument, California, for Rugged Trails

Rising abruptly from the desert floor, the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument reaches an elevation of 10,834 feet at the summit of Mount San Jacinto. Providing a picturesque backdrop to local communities, the National Monument is a desirable backcountry destination that can be accessed via trails from both the valley floor and the alpine village of Idyllwild. The best time of year for hiking lower elevation trails is November through April.

The National Monument’s boundary encompasses about 280,000 acres, including 67,000 acres within the San Jacinto Ranger District of the San Bernardino National Forest, and 97,000 acres within the Bureau of Land Management’s California Desert Conservation Area. The National Monument, a part of the BLM’s National Conservation Lands, includes two federal wilderness areas as well as lands owned and administered by multiple local organizations.

Many trails are open to all forms of non-motorized travel – hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking – but not all trails are open to everyone. Check with the appropriate agency if you don’t know the rules. Be safe and enjoy! on.doi.gov/1ulnSAM
