Description
The rock here is basalt, probably not as perfect as what you will see at Paradise Forks, but if you are looking for an after work route this is a good place to come to. Routes range from 5.7 to 5.11. The belays are a little steep so make sure you don't fall before the first bolt, you will need a spotter.
Getting There
Lookout Mountain is located a couple of blocks south of the crossroad of 16th Street and Greenway, To get there go south from the intersection of 16th Street and Greenway and continue south untill you get to the parking lot. From there go onto trail 108 and then go onto trail 150, continue on the trail, dont go off of the trail, stay on marked trails only, continue untill you reach a fork and go right, there will also be a boulder there that will identify this. From there hike up a little bit and take one of the climbers trails to the left, hike up to the cliff side and the routes are right there.
