The Shandin Hills are a low mountain range of the Transverse Ranges System of Southern California.

Geography

The Shandin Hills are separate and south of the San Bernardino Mountains foothills, and not as high in elevation. The dominant mountain of the hills is Little Mountain, at 564 metres (1,850 ft) in elevation.
