"Strawberry Pass is a great scenic trail that connects highways 50 and 88. The
trail is generally run from the North, which allows you to climb up from Highway
50 over Strawberry pass (8,615 feet). The Northern half of the trail is the most
difficult while the Southern half remains easy to moderate
Although the trail is marked as moderate, there are only two tough obstacles on
the trail. The first being a squeeze between a tree and rock and the other known
as Painted Rock. The squeeze can be negotiated by a stock vehicle and a large
flat stone on Pained Rock has been moved allowing access for even slightly
modified vehicles."
