(inherited from source) - Description:
- This is an early style fire lookout that consisted of a simple wooden platform. Prior to the construction of the platform, a pine tree that jetted out at an angle from the top of the mountain was used to spot smoke from wild fires. The first permanent fire lookout on Bill Williams Mountain was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corp in the 1930's. That lookout is still in use today.
