	San Bernardino Mountains - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The San Bernardino Mountains are a short transverse mountain range northeast of Los Angeles in southern California in the United States.
		The mountains run for approximately 60 mi (100 km) east-west on the southern edge of the Mojave Desert in southwestern San Bernardino County north of the city of San Bernardino.
		The shorter Little San Bernardino Mountains extend southeast from the range along the eastern side of the Coachella Valley.

		The valley extends for approximately 45 miles (72 km) in Riverside County southeast from the San Bernardino Mountains to the Salton Sea.
		It is approximately 15 miles (24 km) wide along most of its length, bounded on the west by the San Jacinto Mountains and the Santa Rosa Mountains and on the east by the Little San Bernardino Mountains.
		The valley's northwest entrance from the Inland Empire along Interstate 10 is known as the "San Gorgonio Pass" and is one of the windiest places on earth.

	OVERVIEW OF TRANSVERSE RANGES GEOLOGY, CALIFORNIA
		The San Gabriel Mountains are bounded on the north by the San Andreas fault, and to the south by the east-west-trending left-lateral faults that separate the range from the San Fernando Valley, the Los Angeles basin, and the Pomona Valley.
		The San Andreas fault that bounds the northwestern San Gabriel Mountains and passes through the northeastern part of the range is active, and was ruptured by the last large earthquake on the San Andreas in southern California, in 1857.
		The San Andreas fault near Cajon Pass forms the boundary bewteen the San Gabriel Mountains to the west, and the San Berrnardino Mountains to the east, separating San Gabriel basement on the south from Mojave basement on the north (Dibblee, 1982e).

	THE ORIGIN OF MORONGO VALLEY, AN EXTENSIONAL BASIN IN THE EASTERN TRANSVERSE RANGES, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
		The Cretaceous White Tank monzogranite and Jurassic to Cretaceous plutonic and metamorphic complex of the Little San Bernardino Mountains (LSBC) are the principal basement rock units (Matti et al., 1994; Wooden et al., 2001).
		From the northern escarpment of the Little San Bernardino Mountains, the curved Pinto Mountain fault tracks westward along the northwest side of Morongo Valley and through Big Morongo Canyon where it joins the San Andreas fault about 20 km to the west (Hopson, 1996).

	Preliminary Geologic Map of the San Bernardino 30' x 60' quadrangle, California
		East of the San Jacinto Fault, the San Bernardino basin is an asymmetric pull-apart basin bounded by the San Andreas Fault on the east, and underlain by many of the same rock units that characterize the San Gabriel Mountains.
		The San Bernardino 30' x 60' geologic-map database should be used to evaluate and understand the geologic character of the San Bernardino 30' x 60' quadrangle as a whole.
		The San Bernardino 30' x 60' database was compiled from many sources including: (1) 1:62,500 reconnaisance mapping, (2) mapping from 1:24,000 USGS Open-File releases, (3) unpublished 1:24,000 mapping (4) Quaternary mapping from interpretation of 1:24,000 aerial photography, and (5) detailed 1:9,600 and 1:12,000 mapping from California Geological Survey Open-File releases.

		The San Bernardino Mountains in southern California have been recognized for supporting a wide diversity of natural habitats that have resulted from their geographic position between desert and coastal environments, elevational zonation, and uncommon substrates such as limestone outcrops.
		Outcrops of carbonate substrates, primarily limestone and dolomite, occur in several bands running on an east-west axis along the desert-facing slopes of the San Bernardino Mountains, with disjunct patches occurring just to the south of Sugarlump Ridge and to the east as far as the Sawtooth Hills.

		Dextral shear on the San Andreas fault dragged the west end of the Pinto Mountain fault, which accommodates the rotation of the eastern Transverse Ranges, to the northwest.
		As the Pinto Mountain fault continued to hinge, rotation of the eastern Transverse Ranges could no longer be accommodated and the Morongo Valley fault formed to allow the rotation to continue.

		Geologic maps of the Little San Bernardino and southeast San Bernardino Mountains show a band of Proterozoic rocks immediately south and west of the Mesozoic intrusive rocks that dominate the exposures in this region.
		These rocks have been considered to be Proterozoic because they are strongly deformed and often lithologically variable at the few meter scale.

		The lower plate of the Vincent thrust consists of Pelona Schist--Mesozoic quartzofeldspathic sandstone and siltstone, limestone, quartzite, chert, and mafic volcanic rocks that have been metamorphosed to greenschist and lower amphibolite facies, presumably during late Mesozoic to early Tertiary emplacement of the upper plate (Ehlig, 1968b, 1981, 1982).
		Strongly deformed Mesozoic granodiorite, tonalite, and quartz diorite form a discrete belt in the southeastern San Bernardino Mountains and along the western margin of the Little San Bernardino Mountains.
		Like rocks of San Gabriel Mountains-type, rocks of San Bernardino Mountains-type may be a layered terrane with batholithic and prebatholithic rocks in an upper plate separated from Pelona Schist in a lower plate by a low-angle fault comparable to the Vincent thrust.
