The destination: Strawberry Peak 🍓
At 6,164 feet, Strawberry Peak is the highest point in the front range of the San Gabriel Mountains. We’ll begin with a moderate climb around the south and west slopes of Mount Lawlor, enjoying views down the Arroyo Seco.
Beyond Lawlor Saddle, the trail becomes steeper as we pass a few false summits before reaching Strawberry Peak. Your reward? Spectacular views of the western San Gabriels and the Los Angeles Basin! After a summit break and maybe a few strawberries, we’ll retrace our steps to the parking lot.
