This location has been evacuated due to the wildfire: CaldorFire 2021. In the middle of the Sierra Nevada, Highway 50 cuts thru from Placerville over to South Lake Tahoe. The alpine terrain is open all year - as snow plows try to keep this route open as the main alternate for Donner Pass, I-80 (to the North). Area is also known as Twin Bridges, CA
This Strawberry CA is one of several inside California. There is a Strawberry in Tuolumne Co., near Pinecrest Lake on Hwy 108 (Sonora Pass), plus another Strawberry Valley on La Porte Road, in Yuba Co. near Sly Creek Reservoir.
