## Overview

Rustic Pine Mountain Lookout was constructed in 1933 and used for fire
detection until 1942. During World War II, the lookout served as part of an
aircraft defense monitoring system that extended throughout California. This
lookout is historically significant because it only offers 180-degree views of
the surrounding terrain, while other lookouts have 360-degree views. The
lookout is typically open from May through October and is accessible by car.
Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and will
need to bring several of their own supplies for a comfortable and enjoyable
experience at the lookout.

## Recreation

The lookout mostly offers a prime location for relaxing and enjoying the
views. Guests craving more active pursuits can find hiking trails and hunting
areas nearby. Floating and fishing on the Eel River are popular pastimes
enjoyed by visitors to the area.

## Facilities

The inside of the cabin is equipped with a set of bunk beds and four cots,
touch lights, a dining table with chairs and storage cabinets. A fire
extinguisher and first aid kit are provided for emergency use. A picnic table,
fire ring and grill are located outside. An outhouse with a vault toilet is a
short distance away. There is no water and electricity. Guests must bring
their own water supply, as well as trash bags to pack out their trash. The
bunk bed does not have box springs or mattresses. Items such as bedding,
lanterns or flashlights, firewood, cookware, utensils and extra toilet paper
are not provided.

## Natural Features

The lookout is perched on an outcropping, at an elevation of 4,400 feet. It is
in a mixed forest of ponderosa pine, Douglas fir, black oak and madrone trees.
Bucknell Creek and the Eel River are the major drainages in the area. The
windows afford views of endless mountain peaks and offer a good vantage point
for watching the evening sunsets. A variety of bird species inhabit the
forest, and guests may spot eagles, owls, hawks and osprey. Mountain lions,
black bears, black-tailed deer, flying squirrels, bobcats and Tule elk also
live in the area. Please be safe around snakes and bears.

## Nearby Attractions

The historic town of Upper Lake is approximately 19 miles to the south. This
former logging and ranching town offers excellent bird watching, various
recreational activities, shops, restaurants and events. The Lake Pillsbury
recreation area is seven miles to the northeast. This is the largest lake in
