Suggested Page Improvements to Luther Rock
Description Suggestion
Located on the southern side of Lake Tahoe, Luther Rock sits high above HWY 89. The rock is severely weathered featured granite and makes for fun climbing. Luther Rock is west facing and sits in the sun most of day. Making a great place for spring or fall climbing. The approach takes about 30 to 50 minutes get to the Detox wall.
The old Mike Carville Falcon guide has the most complete info on the routes for both the [[105734192]] and
[[105734192]] but is not completely up to date, but the book is useful to have. I would recommend getting a copy. You can make your way in Strawberry Station located on HWY 50 across from Lover's leap or Sports Ltd. located near stateline about more update info or to take a look at the old guide book.
