The Lost Rocks rise up from the volcanic beach sands and are flanked by the Redwood National Park which features a rain forest filled with Redwood, Sitka Spruce, Douglas Fir, Maple and Red Alder trees, sprinkled with ferns and wild flowers. Wide tidal swings and occasional winter storms reshape the sands surrounding these monster boulders, creating an ever-changing set of climbing challenges.
Kamp Klamath has become "Bouldering Headquarters" for Lost Rocks climbers. Beautiful wooded campsites, free clean bathrooms and hot showers, quiet privacy, internet access, public telephone, convenience store and reasonable rates [$18 per night], combine to draw climbers back to the Kamp again and again.
