This overlook is located along the Generals Highway, south of Grant Grove. Thousands of acres of wilderness peaks and canyons lie before you. The forces of plate tectonics pushed these mountains up, then water and ice carved canyons deep into them. Thousands of species of plants and animals populate this wild landscape. For a different view out over this area, visit Panoramic Point in Grant Grove.
Safety
Be very careful pulling into and out of this overlook; vehicles move quickly along this stretch of highway and visibility is limited.
