The final steep climb leads to a rocky promontory that juts 200 feet above the surrounding forest and provides magnificent views of Blue Mountain Lake and its many islands. Eight islands including two of the largest islands are part of the forest preserve. For a different perspective, paddle out and explore the islands.
