Description Suggest change

A cool conical spire. It lies at the intersection of two walking paths and just above an area where the kids like to scramble.

Fairly good rock quality it seems (I didn't pull off any holds!) but the apparently requisite SoDak lichen abounds.

Getting There Suggest change

We approached from the loop parking lot on the east side of the lake:

Skirt around the north border of the lake on a walking path, up a nice little rock ramp, and then down the stone slab stairs. Continue with the rock-dam on your left until you see the spire on your right.

It is the last formation on the right before the trail hangs a right. There is a (difficult?) route that goes thru the orangy roof on the NW side.

Maybe 8 minutes from the car?
