## Overview

Spyglass Lookout Ground House is located on Spyglass Peak, in the heart of the
Coeur d'Alene River Ranger District, Idaho Panhandle National Forests. It's
approximately 2.5 miles east and slightly south, as the crow flies, of the
Magee Historic Site.

The Spyglass Lookout site is listed on the National Historic Lookout Register.
It was first used as a patrol point in 1911 and by the 1920s supported a tower
and housing for forest fire lookouts. It was an operational lookout until the
mid- to late 60s and then abandoned in the 1970s. Current structures on the
site include a 53-foot tower support structure (the hipped roof L-4 cab having
been removed in 2014), a 1930s gable roofed ground house used as a residence
for lookouts when the site was operational, and a 1930s Civilian Conservation
Corps (CCC) constructed outhouse. Extensive restoration of the ground house
for use as a recreation rental cabin began in 2012 and was completed in 2019.

## Recreation

The cabin provides access to several non-motorized hiking trails and a popular
fishing stream for day excursions in the surrounding area. The trailhead for
Fearn Creek (Trail #407) is about 1 1/2 miles from the cabin and the upper
trailhead for Halsey Creek (Trail #451) is about 2 miles from the site. Within
8-10 miles of the cabin are trailheads for Boundary Peak (Trail #325), the
lower end of Halsey Creek Trail, and the lower end of Little Elk Creek (Trail
#32). Also within this range is Tepee Creek, a favorite fly fishing stream
with a westslope cutthroat trout fishery. Slightly further, but still within
range of a day outing is Independence Creek National Recreation Trail (Trail
#22). This trail offers opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, horseback
riding, and motorcycle riding.

## Facilities

The ground house measures 14 x 14 feet and offers a dry cabin camping
experience for 4 guests; there is no water or electricity. There are two new
single mattresses and one bedframe to provide sleeping accommodations for two,
with one mattress on the floor. Additional guests may need to provide their
own sleeping pads or cots. There are kitchen table and chairs, a Jotul
woodstove, wood box, and storage cabinet with basic dishes and eating
utensils. There is no refrigerator or cooking stove. Outside the cabin is a
picnic table and fire pit. The outdoor pit toilet is located about 150 feet
from the cabin and is supplied with biodegradable toilet paper. Visitors
should bring plenty of water for drinking and washing up, sleeping bags,
matches or lighter, newspaper, garbage bags, flashlight, an ice chest for food
storage, battery or propane lanterns, a propane cook stove, dish soap, towels
and wash cloth, toiletries, insect repellent, first aid kit, extra toilet
paper (just in case), and warm clothes.

## Natural Features

Spyglass Peak is situated at 5,190 feet in elevation and is surrounded by the
Coeur d' Alene Mountains. From vantage points near the cabin, vistas of
ridgetops, forested slopes, and drainages of the North Fork Coeur d'Alene
River and tibutaries extend as far as the eye can see. Wildlife in the area
include moose, elk, whitetail deer, mule deer, wolf, black bear, mountain
lion, fisher, ground squirrels, grouse, and goshawks, as well as other birds
and many small mammals.
