What range is this??

[Kid A]

So i'm flying to TX the other day (out of SNA), i look out the window and see this low cloud cover with the mtns sticking through. Pretty cool - take pic with camera phone. This was maybe within 15 minutes of takeoff.
How sweet would it be to ride through this up to peak:bang:

Had my head in mag during takoff - any guess on what mtns are these (not testing i have no idea) gotta be past SA's - Big Bear maybe?:?:

Hmmm, I've done that flight numerous times myself...

That smaller range looks a lot like the santa anas. :-k

Often from SNA you take off going west and spend a few minutes climbing before heading back east so maybe you weren't as far as you thought. And doesn't it turn to uber-desert right after the big bear-area?

...that cloud cover plays havoc on the old mental map.

the smaller range is the Santa Anas and the range further back is the San Bernadino mountains.
