SUMMIT - CAJON PASS
Cajon (Sp., box) Pass is located at the south end of
the Sierra Madre Mountains and for over a century
has been the southeast gateway to the coast. Indians
used this trail, before the white man, to trade with the
coast Indians. Trading camps were set up along the
Santa Ana River near the present town of Colton.
William Wolfskill blazed the Spanish Trail from Santa
Fe to Los Angeles through this pass in 1831. From
the Summit is an inspiring view of the desert, valley,
and the San Bernardino Mountains. . . . M.P.
