Description
View of the cliff tower staircase at the Graycliff estate which runs from the estate on the cliff to the lake beach below
A metal staircase structure extends down the side of a steep, rocky cliff. The staircase is supported by a steel framework with multiple platforms and railings, leading from the top of the cliff to the ground below. At the top, a walkway with railings extends outward over the cliff edge. The surrounding area consists of exposed rock layers, loose gravel, and scattered large stone blocks. Trees and vegetation are visible along the upper edge of the cliff.
