| This town was named Matterhorn after a nearby peak that resembled the Swiss counterpart although it was originally named San Bernardo. Many of the buildings were torn down by the owners at the demand of the Forest Service.Aerial tramways stretch across the valley but no trespassing signs are posted everywhere.
