Description Suggest change

This is a striking tower overlooking the Dolores River. The rock is good sandstone.

Getting There Suggest change

Park under the tower about 12.5 miles from the paved road. This is about 1/2 mile before the boat launch. Look for a boulder with an obvious hand crack about 50' in from the road.

The trail is about 50' left of this boulder - it is well cairned. The approach takes about 1/2 hour.
