Hiking the Angeles: Strawberries on Strawberry Peak
Peak 3 of our Six Pack of Peaks challenge was Strawberry Peak in the San Gabriel Mountains. The trail starts off Angeles Crest Highway across from the Red Box Picnic Area, and the hike is generally considered challenging. In this post, the Cranky Camper shares her experience, as well as a minor misadventure on the trail.
Capitol Reef National Park
With fruit trees, pie, stunning canyons, and natural bridges, Capitol Reef National Park is an adventurer's paradise. While it was quieter than Arches or even Canyonlands, this national park was probably my favorite.
Canyonlands National Park
Canyonlands is the largest national park in Utah with diverse geology and interesting features. Points in interest include balanced rocks, deep canyons, needle-like spires, and the famed Mesa Arch.
