The Big Bear Wild Burro Territory covers 50 square miles in the eastern San Bernardino Mountains and offers your best chance to see wild burros in Southern California. This route hits the hot spots where burros are commonly found and includes a summit of Onyx Peak. I'll walk you through the route and share alternative locations on the map. No permits required. Accessible year-round, though summer heat can be intense at lower elevations. Moderate difficulty with optional summit extension.
