The Scenic Route

We had some claims in Beaumont, CA. We took the scenic route over the mountains as we returned to San Jacinto.

We are on our way up the mountain, looking back down onto Beaumont.

As we wound our way up the

mountain we began to see some trees.

At about 5000 feet there were a lot of trees. This is the San Bernardino National Forest. All of the park areas were closed because the fire danger is so high.

Coming down back into the desert valley... there is always a haze in the air, so it is hard to see the mountains in the distance.
