A great write up about the restoration by Jerry Branning who ran the project.

Our Notes

This is the only standing L-6 in Idaho. We believe that mostly due to its unique location it is in remarkably untouched shape and completely free of any vandalism. We assume if you are on this website that you love lookouts as much we do – and for that reason we are asking all to join us in keeping this lookouts location mum.

They did such a fantastic job on this restoration!
