Lookout!

Post by DjEep » Fri Apr 18, 2008 12:31 pm

Anybody do the fire lookout thing? I know it's a little cushier than a bus, but looks like a great way to spend a night or two.

Indian Ridge has an access road, it appears, so you could possibly fit a few few buses at the bottom for a small group camp.

We've done it (well, there were plenty of people in the cabin already so we slept in Ludwig), and enjoyed it. We'd definitely do it again, and sleep in it this time.
Love those stoves.
