Bald Rock Dome, Granite summit in Plumas National Forest, California.
Bald Rock Dome rises 3,509 feet above sea level, featuring an 800-foot granite face with numerous climbing routes in Butte County's wilderness.
The Maidu people established their presence at Bald Rock Dome by creating metate and grinding holes in the rock for processing acorns and grains.
The granite formation holds multiple traditional climbing routes, including Moroccan Roll rated 5.7 and Praying Mantle rated 5.11a for technical ascents.
Access to Bald Rock Dome requires navigation through Forest Service roads from Oroville, with camping permitted 300 yards away from water sources.
The granite dome contains several crevasses and rock formations, while offering views of the Sacramento Valley and California's coastal mountain ranges.
