MISSISSIPPI PALISADES

October 01, 2011




Mississippi Palisades is another nice place to visit for some limited climbing routes and some decent hiking scenery.

  The town of Galena is also nearby which is a beautiful old mining town transformed into a antique center with nice restaurants and wineries. 

The Climbing routes at the Palisades are limited; some are starting to fall apart, and usually will have a lot of people waiting to climb the routes there. 

 It is a nice vista overlooking the Mississippi river which is enjoyable for a casual day hike but I find this location a backup place to visit over Devils Lake in Wisconsin as it is around the same distance from Chicago and Devils Lake offers more climbing routes for people.
