Santa Ana River Description

The Santa Ana River begins in San Bernardino County, California, in the San Bernardino National Forest. Its highest source lakes are Dollar Lake (9,220') and Dry Lake (9,065'), both on the northern flank of San Gorgonio Mountain (11,499') in the San Gorgonio Wilderness. Its watershed areas above an elevation of 8,500', which occupy a substantial portion of the watershed, receive the majority of precipitation in the form of snow. After traveling nearly 100 miles (160 km) through San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange Counties, it eventually reaches its terminus between Newport Beach and Huntington Beach where it spills into the Pacific Ocean. Despite much of the river being channelized in recent times, it still represents one of the largest river systems in Southern California.[1]
