Hiking Strawberry Peak Via The Mountaineers Route

Northeast of Los Angeles California, sits Strawberry Peak, located in the San Gabriel Mountains in the Angeles National Forest. I’ve concurred this peak a handful of times, but this year I decided to try something a little different. It was time to hike this mountain via the Mountaineer route. This hike was completed on February 4th 2023.

For this hike, The Colby Canyon trailhead is located a couple miles south of the Red Box Picnic area along the Angeles Crest Highway. Total mileage to complete this hike is roughly 13 miles.

My emotional support and friend, Tony Lopes, joined me for this hike.

This peak is also included as one of the alternate peaks in the Southern California Six Pack of Peaks Challenge. For more information on the Southern California Six Pack of Peaks Challenge or other possible challenges near you visit.
