Hiker: Jeannine Bulot, Albuquerque, NM - Rincon Overlook- Water Level 3569
Easy to Moderate hike: 3 miles R/T
The Rincon Overlook. date:05/15/05, Water level 3569
The Rincon overlook is an easy hike up the slickrock slope to a great overlook of the lake and Rincon. The slope reaches water level across and slightly uplake from Iceberg Canyon. (GPS: 37 20'11"N, 110 46'04"W)
We found a cove to beach the boat then hiked up the slickrock, steering to the west, the lake on out left and the waterpocket fold on our right.
We stayed close to the lake as we got higher, eventually reaching a high point with a great view of the Rincon across the lake to the south. (GPS: 37 20'23"N, 110 47'46"W) The hike is about 3 miles round trip but can easily be made longer by exploring the area.
Slope leading up to Overlook.
