Victorville sees the mountains from behind, and Cajon Pass handles the introduction. Big Falls hangs five hundred feet down the canyon near Forest Falls, and the trail asks less than a mile of you. Walk a mile and a half up Lytle Creek and Bonita Falls shows you all 160 feet. The gentle option is San Antonio Falls on the Baldy road at 1.4 miles. Dogs can join at those three. Eight falls total, most running on snowmelt, so spring is when the high desert gets its reward.
