Rock Climb
The Playground is a fun, moderate to hard place to sport rock climb. You can find approximately nine routes (popular ones include: Tied to the Whipping Post, Cure for the Hangover, Anchored to the Sky) on this basalt type rock, ranging from 70 - 80 feet in height. The prime time to climb would be the warmer months from April - September. The Playground is located outside of Idaho Falls, east of the small town of Firth.
