- <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Silverwood_Lake_State_Recreation_Area" title="Category:Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area">Silverwood Lake</a> reservoir in the San Bernardinos is a part of the <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:California_State_Water_Project" title="Category:California State Water Project">California State Water Project</a> system infrastructure.
- The San Andreas Fault runs straight up the middle, from <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:San_Bernardino_County,_California" title="Category:San Bernardino County, California">San Bernardino County</a> toward Los Angeles County on the horizon.
- The mountain ranges are formed by the Pacific Plate colliding into the North American Plate, right here, on this boundary. The 2 mountain ranges are also headed northwest. Here we are looking at the one section of the famous fault where a collision is actually taking place, because this is where the fault bends west before heading north again.
