Fall Trees In The San Bernardino Mountains

A walk around the San Bernardino Mountains in late fall will allow you to see many yellow colored oak leaves, and the beautiful pine trees that remain green all year. Our deciduous oak trees have leaves that change between yellow and orange tinted hues, but are still mesmerizing to look at. I seen photos of the myriad of leaf colors that you can see during the autumn in other parts of North America, but at least coming up to the San Bernardino Mountains allows you to see the changing colors of trees, which is something you will not see much of in the Inland Valley and the Los Angles region.

Walking around on an overcast day up in the San Bernardino Mountains is the perfect photo opportunity for all of the amazing trees.

The fog in the later afternoon creates a frosty glaze through which to view the trees up in the San Bernardino Mountains.

The next day was sunny and clear up in the San Bernardino Mountains, which allowed me to take more stunning photos of the trees.

Taking pictures of the trees and the acorns in the San Bernardino Mountains is very intriguing. I have even made a meal out of ground up acorns I have collected up here, which was the main source of grain for the Serrano Indians before the arrival of Europeans.

In the San Bernardino Mountains there are a few hills with dead trees that have new trees sprouting around these.

As I continue to walk down the road I see many other trees that are worthy of being photographed, or maybe even sketched.

As I continued my walk, I photographed a small creek that I could see from the road.
