Fairview Dome is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land within the Barstow Field Office in California. It sits among several named climbing areas, including West Side, Northeast side and Middle Earth, all about 0.1 mile away. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Victorville show April highs around 73°F and October highs around 79°F, while July and August average in the upper 90s. That station sits roughly 1,000 feet lower than the dome, so temperatures up here run cooler.
