Devil Canyon

Devil Canyon is a canyon in the San Bernardino Mountains with steep rock walls and narrow passages carved by water erosion over time. The valley contains multiple streams that feed into the Santa Ana River system as they flow through the terrain.

Early explorers and settlers used the canyon as a passage through the mountains during the period of European expansion and settlement. The route provided crucial access through difficult terrain for travel and commerce.

The canyon borders the Crow Indian Reservation, reflecting the continuous presence of Native American heritage in the surrounding territories.

The terrain is challenging and requires good hiking skills and proper equipment for mountain trekking. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions and bring adequate water and supplies.

Visitors can spot Bighorn Sheep at multiple locations throughout the canyon, a species native to this region. The animals use the steep cliffs as shelter and are often visible during early morning or late evening hours.
