Strawberry Mountains Solitude, Oregon, September 2010

July 13, 2011 by Paul McClellan 1 Comment

Linda and I camped four nights at the Parish Cabin Campground over the Labor Day Weekend in September 2010. The pleasant campground lies along Bear Creek south of the Strawberry Mountains. Over the next three days I climbed five peaks located in the Strawberry Mountain Wilderness to the north. During these climbs I experienced unexpected but quite pleasant Strawberry Mountains Solitude.

The peaks I visited were Graham Mountain, [Riner Basin-Slide], Indian Creek Butte, Pine Creek Mountain (East Peak), and [Berry-Norton]. These peaks are among Jeff Howbert’s Oregon 100 Highest Peaks, a list which had caught my interest and ambition.
