Lookouts R Us

Cindy and her friend went up the 172 steps up to Buck Rock Lookout this past weekend. Why you might ask? Not only because it is there, but for the experience of having one of the best views you can go to. You are welcome to visit Buck Rock when a lookout is on duty, between 10:30am and 5:00pm.

In case you're looking!

Are you interested in a Fire Lookout position? We are hosting Fire Lookout training May 2-3 at the Eldorado National Forest Supervisor's Office.

Lookouts support the Fire Management program by providing weather observations and public information at the fire lookout towers. Through these services, lookouts help protect communities and public lands from catastrophic wildfires, increase public awareness and help preserve our heritage.
