Directions
From Eugene, Oregon, take I-5 south to the exit for Highway 58 East. Drive
east 34 miles on Highway 58 through Oakridge. Continue on Highway 58 about 1
to 1.5 miles east of Oakridge. Turn right towards Hills Creek Reservoir on
Kitson Springs Road and proceed 0.2 mile to Forest Service Road (FSR) 21. Turn
right and follow double lane FSR 21 south and southeast for approximately 18
miles. Turn left on gravel FSR 2129. Proceed on 2129 for 8 miles to Spur 439.
(You may encounter snow before you reach 439). Turn right at this junction;
follow this road for 4 miles to the 342 spur on the left. This is the road to
the lookout. The road is gated, but the gate is usually buried under snow
during the winter season and not visible. Lookout signs along FSR 21 and FSR
2129 will help identify the routes. Orange poles identify the final route
through a meadow to the lookout. If a low-elevation storm is predicted at the
time of arrival, be sure to park vehicle facing downhill before reaching the
snow zone. It is the responsibility of cabin guests to arrange for towing if
their vehicle gets stuck in snow.
