Features -none-

Trail currently closed from Colby Canyon Trail to Upper Big Tujunga Road.

Description

You'll join this trail at a junction with a register box. From here, climb uphill to the Lawlor / Strawberry Saddle Trail. The climb to the saddle is sandy and loose, making for some frustrating hike a bike sections, but it should improve with time and use. Once at the Saddle, the downhill to Redbox is fun.

This description does not include the section of trail north of the Colby Canyon Trail junction which is closed to public use due to environmental reasons.

I was going to ride this trail from the bottom of the trail near Colby Ranch. 1) theres a gate off the main road saying "closed", so you can't drive to the trailhead 2) the trail once you get to it is in very pool condition at the bottom of the trail. This trail should be taken off this website until it sees some serious maintenance. It might be hikeable, but definitely would not be fun on a bike. Feb 6, 2018

Lots of stream crossings on the way up Gabrielino Trail. It's a challenge not to fall in at least once!
