Hi Elleise,
Read your post and this came to mind:
I was out in CA a few years ago, in Palm Springs and LA. I remember stopping at a ski resort in the San Bernadino mountains -- nearby -- and was struck by the fact, it's etched in my mind in fact, that many of the skiiers were not bundled up because it was so sunny and warm out. A beautiful place.
It's less than 100 miles to LA; this area is east of LA.
The name? Hmmm. Bear Mountain or Big Bear Mountain I believe. Don't know about the Santa Ana winds, but San Jacinto is somewhere nearby, as in the song by Peter Gabriel.
Hope the New Year is treating you well.
Peace.
