A magnificent natural feature of Los Angeles county is the coastlineвЂ™s distinctive beaches, which attract millions of sun worshippers annually. Farther south-running roughly between Orange and Riverside counties-are the Santa Ana Mountains. These chains delineate the San Fernando, San Gabriel, and San Bernardino valleys. Stretching in front of them-and more or less in parallel lines from west to east-are the Santa Monica Mountains, Puente Hills, Repetto Hills, and San Jose Hills. To the north and northeast are the massive and sprawling San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains. Nearly half of the county is taken up by mountain chains-most of them running east-west-that have a dynamic history of earthquakes, firestorms, and mud slides. It includes a group of inland valleys, a coastal plain separated by low mountains that are interspersed with steep passes, an arc of still higher mountains, and a long seacoast. Los Angeles county is a vast and varied geographic entity.
