Description

Climbing in and around the greater Keelowkee Lake area. The approach is best done on a bike past the gated NFS roads. Bring legs of iron and cardio of the gods to access these scattered rocks. If you're an avid cyclist and don't mind riding with a few pads and gear, the ride in isn't too terrible once you're used to it. Not a destination for travelers but fun enough for local climbers trying to scratch the session spot on an afternoon or after work mission.

Getting There

Follow the NFS gated roads beyond the lake. Follow specific directions on pages.
