California > High Desert > Apple Valley Area > Fairview Mountain > Land of the Lost

Description

Nice summit that overlooks apple valley. Pretty good climbs with some nice slab moves.

Getting There

Hike past the leaning tower and outer face. Takes 25-30 minutes from the car. Look at the topo map of the climbing area and you'll figure it out.
