HISTORY

1931: 30′ pole L-4

From the Sanders County Independent-Ledger in 1931; “The new lookout at 72 peak on the Montana-Idaho state line has been completed. This is the latest style, with a porch entirely around it, built on a 30-foot tower, and heavily insulated against lightning. It can be reached by auto over the Jacks gulch road, south of Heron.”

1950: The tower was destroyed.

Our Notes

Our first visit to Divide was not, infact, to the correct location and Gary Weber let us know. So we made a return trip and sure enough, found the correct site.
