San Sevaine Road

San Sevaine Road is located in the beautiful San Bernardino National Forest. The trail runs east to west on the south-facing slopes between Mount San Antonio (Mount Baldy) and the Cajon Pass. The views into the Inland Empire are spectacular, where you can spot the ocean on a clear day. This trail has somewhat unusual seasonal closures to protect important fawning habitat for mule deer, a Forest Service Management Indicator Species. The trail is closed between March 1st and Labor Day.

Another highlight of this trail is the Joe Elliott Yellow Post Site near the end. Joe Elliott was the Superintendent of this forest from 1929 to 1935. Southern California's largest conifer tree was once at this campsite. The massive tree was 23 feet in circumference and 140 feet tall. Sadly it had to be taken down for safety reasons.
