Description

The low, sloped dome directly across from Fairview Dome. Often covered by tourists scurrying up the low angle out of the meadow.

Getting There

This dome is at the West end of the meadow just as you see the meadow traveling East. The store and campground at the East end of the meadow are several miles away. Pothole Dome slopes directly out of the meadows. Park in the turnout and follow the trail to the West along the road a few hundred feet until reaching the dome. Go climbers left to base of routes. The meadow is being restored, please use the established trails.
