Strawberry Mountain — Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2020

The introduction to this trail is intact. The trail starts at Bear Meadow Interpretative Center Parking lot (bathrooms open).  Across FR 99 begins the Boundary Trail #1 begins.  The trail immediately ascends at a 10-20-degree incline.  From the trailhead to the 0.5-mile junction (Boundary Trail heads west, Strawberry Mountain Trail heads north) the trail is rutted in a “V” shape due to bicycle tires coursing down the center.  The tread is mostly pumice and  few trail erosions are due to water.  The 24" diameter log described in June has been cut and removed.  The tread for the first mile is mostly pumice.  The corridor has been opened the full length of the trail.
