Land OwnerAngeles National Forest
This section of Strawberry Peak Trail starts just east of Strawberry Potrero (meadow) by climbing a series of switchbacks. It then traverses across the eastern slopes of Strawberry Peak while climbing 800ft in two miles to Lawlor Saddle. This part has some technical and sandy sections in addition to exposure that can make for a tough climb. After the saddle, the trail descends 400ft in 1.3 miles to the Old Barley Flats truck trail and on to Red Box TH. This section has exposure but is very rideable both directions.
