Balanced Rock is an overhanging, stunning sight to see. I’m not sure that it’s ever been climbed. Balanced Rock is located in the Balanced Rock County Park and is just west of Salmon Falls Creek. There is a picnic area and pullout along Balanced Rock Road a short distance underneath it. If you’re smart, just take a photo and leave. USGS Balanced Rock
