Probably one of the best USFS experiences out there. Impossible to book but worth it..

As of 6/4/23 you have to walk 0.7 miles (300 feet of elevation gain) to get to the lookout because the last section of road is blocked by 2-3 feet of winter snow. Nice views. One mattress is more comfortable than the other. So fun!

Love to spend a few days every year at the Spruce Mountain Fire Lookout Tower when my fiance and I can reserve it. Awesome views all around. Just enjoyable to see everything 55 feet off the ground. The cabin has always been cleaned upon our arrival. The experience would even be better if the small refrigerator was operable. It has not worked for quite a few years.
