We don't yet have a documented staffing history for this lookout. If you know who staffed this tower — or have a photo, story, or record to share — we'd love to hear from you.
OUR NOTES
As we were bushwhacking our way up to Cataract Peak, Billy’s brother Brian cracked the joke that it would be hard to SEE it due to its name. Unfortunately, he wasn’t wrong. 😉
What we found MIGHT have been a lookout tree that was then used as a hunting tree stand:
The spikes in the tree make us think thats a strong possibility anyway. The small handmade bench lay next to the tree.
There were two tree stands on the peak – and Billy found a tin of Prince Alberts tobacco.
Billy also found a nice place to take a nap.
