part 1 - Colby Canyon Trail descent to Strawberry Meadow & beginning of Strawberry Peak Trail
Spectacular views from the top of Colby Canyon.
Turning east off of fire-road to the beginning of Colby Canyon Trail. Strawberry Peak in background.
They look intimidating, but the switchbacks climbing to Josephine saddle are a very pleasant grade. South-facing, though, so exposed to the sun unless you climb it in a cloud.
Looking back towards Josephine Saddle
Trail is too eroded to ride, had to carry the bike here.
