Blackhall Mountain Lookout
Resting atop of a nearly 11,000-foot summit, Blackhall Mountain Lookout is perched in the Sierra Madre Range in southeast Wyoming. Traveling to the end of one of the highest roads in Wyoming rewards the visitor with panoramic views of the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests.
Built in 1963, and listed on the National Historic Registry, this remote lookout tower sleeps 4 comfortably with one queen sized bed and one twin sized bunk bed. The tower is equipped with propane heat, a propane stove, LED solar lights and strong AT&T and Union signals. Don’t miss the beautiful Wyoming sunrises and sunsets and an occasional lightning storm from the wrap-around catwalk offering 360-degree views!
Being a remote cabin, water is not available, so please plan to provide your own water and a vault toilet is located nearby. Also, please bring your own bedding, dishes, silverware and cooking utensils. Outlets and charge ports are not available. Additionally, the last 3 miles leading to Blackhall Mountain Lookout require a high clearance vehicle with 4WD and bringing a saw, in case of fallen trees on the road is also recommended.
Lastly, please be advised this is a functioning fire tower and availability of the cabin could be modified at any time to be utilized during a fire. Enjoy your stay at this historic site!
