Moist air comes across the Pacific Ocean, crosses the coastal hills, & hits the 5,800-ft Cahuilla Mountain located in the San Bernardino National Forest, dropping rain onto the granite mountainside. On the southwestern slope below the 3,000 ft. level, that rain again surfaces in a large horizontal spring line, dotted by large groves of oak trees & sycamores. 2 horizontal well systems provide bottled-water quality, gravity flow spring water to the 2 water holding structures, & the entire property-Nearby neighbors sold to bottled water companies for years. Located 1.5 hours from either downtown Los Angeles, or San Diego, this property offers about 45 acres of pasture land for horses/ cattle.
