🥾🍓 Ready for another YoPro challenge hike?
Join us on Sunday, November 8 as we head into the San Gabriel Mountains for Strawberry Peak via Red Box — a beautiful, rewarding route with great mountain views and a solid climb to one of the area’s most recognizable summits.
This one is a step up from our usual moderate hikes, but still very doable for hikers who are comfortable with sustained climbing.
📅 Sunday, November 8
⏰ 8:00 AM
📍 Red Box / Angeles National Forest
🥾 ~7.5 miles
⛰️ ~1,500 ft elevation gain
⏱️ ~4 hours
🔥 Difficulty: Moderate–Hard
↔️ Out & back
Expect a scenic climb, exposed sections, and a steeper final push toward the summit. Bring plenty of water, good hiking shoes, sun protection, snacks, and layers since mountain temperatures can change quickly.
🚗 Parking: Adventure Pass may be required at Red Box, so please plan ahead.
As always, come solo or bring a friend — new faces are welcome. 🙌
After the hike, we’ll head down to La Cañada for a well-earned brunch at Dish Restaurant.
It’s a good fit for the group because it has a broad brunch menu, a casual post-hike vibe, and is known for handling larger parties reasonably well.
📍 734 Foothill Blvd, La Cañada Flintridge
Come for the summit, stay for the brunch. 🍳☕🥾
