Since October 2024, we’ve enjoyed sharing photos submitted by our readers and social media audience that highlight destinations across San Bernardino County. Through this effort, it has become clear that some of the most beautiful images that we receive do not always fit within the category of destinations.
Most of these images capture the county’s natural beauty or interesting sites that tell you something about the place we live. Therefore, we are excited to introduce a new weekly photo and video feature called SBC Through Your Eyes.
This new column will feature photos and videos that show San Bernardino County in many different aspects, from destinations to cityscapes and nature.
