This is the type locality of the Lyons Sandstone. The Lyons Sandstone also composes the Rotwand Wall in Eldo and North Gateway, South Gateway and Kindergarten in the Garden of the Gods. At Steamboat Mountain, the rock more closely resembles Wingate Sandstone, which is also composed of dune sand.

Getting There Suggest change

This is above and east of US Hwy 36, just northwest of Lyons.
