Conrad's North Idaho Forest Fire Lookouts


 

The Lookout Tower was once the king of the mountains.  Now with satellite and aerial heat seeking technology, Lookouts are a dying breed.  Here in northern Idaho & western Montana, we're lucky enough to have a few left to enjoy and appreciate their historical significance.  These pages are dedicated to those who've served & serve still.

So far, I have Schafer Peak, Roundtop, Delyle Ridge, Packsaddle, Antelope Mtn, Trestle Peak and Scotchman Peak lookouts in the Clark Fork Idaho area as well as Squaw Peak just across the border. Special thanks to Gary Weber of the FFLA for many of the older pictures. Most of my pictures were taken with my Olympus OM-1.
I'm proud to have grown up and live still in what I know as God's Country.

 

I'm looking for any Stories, Memorabilia and Photographs of Schafer (was also called Shaffer) Peak Lookout Tower, as well as any pictures & stories of the other Lookouts I have listed - please email me if you can help me out.
