We reached at the trailhead at 6:15 am on Saturday June 29th, the parking lot was full, we have to park at the second lot which was 0.2 miles walk.

Our hike started at 7 am from San Bernardino Peak Trail 1W07, it was a perfect weather to start with.

The first 3 miles were steep but not too extreme (about 600-700 ft per mile) and then the trail flattened out a bit for the 4th mile and miles 5-8 were moderately steep with elevation gain of about 500-600 ft per mile; the scenery was beautiful and green…lots of tall green trees and around the halfway part an open area with manzanita; beautiful views along the way in all directions of other nearby mountains, views of the Inland Empire, and a view of Big Bear Lake

The total hike was 16.5 miles roundtrip for me.

The view from top was awesome, need to go back again.
