About

National Forest

Sitting at an elevation of 6,960 feet, approximately 23 miles north of Whitefish, MT. Attractions at the site include picturesque views of the Whitefish Mountain Range, Glacier National Park and Flathead Valley. The Ralph Thayer Memorial Trail runs next to the lookout and is part of a system of trails that extends from Werner Peak to Diamond Peak and Red Meadow Lake.

We can accommodate up to 4 people with two single beds and two cots and outhouse. Visitors must supply their own water as none is available on site. Due to steep terrain: NO renting to groups with children under the age of 10. Well behaved pets are allowed.

Most amazing view

This is an fire lookout that has been converted to accommodate renters. It has panoramic windows with breathtaking views of glacier park and flathead valley. It is well kept and clean, with propane appliances, so there is heat and a stove to cook on as well as propane lamps on the walls inside. Sunsets and sunrises are particularly amazing from this location. I highly recommend waking up before dawn to watch the sunrise over Glacier National Park. The one downside is that the road up can be kind of rough, but any vehicle with decent ground clearance should be able to make it (like a Subaru).
