FAIRVIEW PEAK LOOKOUT
A cabin was built here in 1912, with a cupola cab added in 1924. A 20' L-4 tower, constructed in 1936, was replaced by the present 53' treated timber R-6 flat cab in 1972. It is available on the Recreation Rental program and is listed on the National Historic Lookout Register.
