Overview

5S10 - Red Hill Road is west of Idyllwild/Pine Cove in the San Bernardino National Forest and the San Jacinto Forest District. It's an easy 3 mile drive through beautiful forests at it's upper end and typical high desert scrub when coming in off of the Old Control Road in the lower elevations. When hearing the weatherman announce snow levels to 4000 feet it is especially beautiful as you transition from a bright blue sky on a dry road to a cloudy, wet, snow filled road at the higher elevations. Easily done in 30 minutes, but why? Stop, look, listen, enjoy! Everything Idyllwild has to offer can be found here.
