Also known as the "Rock Candy Mountains," these rock formations are located about a mile west of the 15 Freeway, along Hwy 138. Rte. 138 actually passes between the two groups of formations, which jut out of the ground at odd angles.
According to local lore, veterans of the Mormon Battalion camped in this area, while enroute to San Bernardino during the early 1850's.
Today. these formations are easily enjoyed by visitors, who can park nearby and take in the view.
This image was taken with my drone, as it was hovering over the parking area (not visible in the photo) along Hwy. 138. It is possible to drive down into the sandy wash, if you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
The road on the left is Hwy. 138.
Hwy. 138 passes right through the Mormon Rocks.
