Description

The first lookout on this site was a tree platform built in 1930. That was replaced by a 40' wooden L-4 tower in 1951, which was removed in 1965. The tree platform was still there in the 1980s, but eventually the Forest Service decided it was necessary to remove the old platform tree due its having become an "attractive nuisance."
