Dome Mountain (Los Angeles County) The Slide Mountain Lookout, located above Pyramid Lake off Interstate 5, was built in 1969 as part of the Pyramid Reservoir project. It was restored by ANFFLA and operational since 2003. This lookout is open all year long, and hearty volunteers are needed, as it is a 3-hour uphill hike to the lookout.
