## Overview

Bald Butte Lookout is perched atop the windy summit of Bald Butte in the
Fremont-Winema National Forest in south-central Oregon. It is surrounded by
forested hillsides and expansive views.  
  
The lookout was built in 1931 and served as a Forest Service fire detection
site for over 50 years. It was constructed from an Aladdin L4 ground-mounted
lookout kit in which all of the pieces were pre-cut in six-foot lengths or
less so the entire kit could be packed by horses into the remote site. The
total cost of the structure at the time was $668.49 and only took a few days
to assemble.  
  
At one time, hundreds of these types of lookouts were in service throughout
the Pacific Northwest. Today only two such structures remain in Oregon,
providing a unique lodging experience for guests seeking recreation and
relaxation.  
  
The lookout offers basic amenities, though for guests to enjoy their
experience completely, they must bring several of their own supplies.

## Recreation

Hiking, birding, stargazing and wildlife viewing are popular activities. Bald
Butte Trail is a quiet all-season trail that offers a variety of terrain and
wildlife viewing opportunities. Hikers traverse large open meadows filled with
summer wildflowers, heavily wooded forests and ridgetop scrambles along Oak
Ridge Trail and Surveyor's Ridge Trail, overlooking the Hood River Valley.
Trails in the Gearhart Mountain Wilderness are also nearby.  
  
At night the lookout provides an ideal setting for stargazing, as
constellations and planets put on a dazzling display.

## Facilities

The 14' x 14' lookout is furnished with two cots, a table, bench and storage
cabinets. It is also equipped with a propane heater, cook stove, and lights.
An outdoor picnic table and an accessible vault toilet are also on-site.  
There is no water on-site, so guests must bring sufficient supplies for
drinking, cooking and washing. Guests must also provide their own sleeping
bags, linens, towels, dish soap, matches, cooking gear, first aid kit, toilet
paper, ice cooler and garbage bags. Although lighting is available, it is
recommended that guests bring an additional light source in case of
emergencies.

## Natural Features

Fremont National Forest is known for its towering snow-capped peaks, volcanic
landscapes, wide-open sage basins, scenic vistas and wild places where
visitors can still find solitude.  
  
Nearby Gearhart Wilderness offers 22,823 acres of scenic views and primitive
recreational opportunities. Throughout the remote area, streams rush through
narrow meadows and Blue Lake lies nestled beneath a canopy of mixed-conifer
forests. Rock formations cap most of the high elevation ridge tops.

## Overview

Fremont Point Cabin is located on top of the Winter Rim in North Central Lake
County, Oregon. The newly constructed cabin, which was completed in the summer
of 2015, sits on the same footprint as its predecessor, which was destroyed
during a forest fire in 2002. Through numerous donations of funding,
materials, and volunteer labor, the cabin has been rebuilt and is now ready
for you to enjoy. While the cabin is available year-round, off season access
may be limited to foot or snowmobile depending on weather conditions, as the
roads are not maintained in the winter.

## Recreation

Recreational activities within close proximity of Fremont Point Cabin include
horseback riding, wildlife viewing and photography, mountain biking, OHV
riding, hunting, fishing, kayaking and boating. Numerous trails including the
Fremont National Recreation Trail and Oregon Timber Trail are also nearby.

## Facilities

The large two-sided deck provides ample room to sit, relax and enjoy the
vistas. Inside, the cabin contains one set of bunk beds (two twins) and one
queen-size bed. There is room for additional sleeping arrangements, which
guests must provide. Also included in the cabin are an LP Range Top,
refrigerator, several LP lamps, and a wood stove for heat, firewood is
available at the cabin. A newly constructed vault toilet is available next to
the cabin. The closest convenience store is a 45 minute drive one-way; so
visitors are reminded to bring their own water, bedding, and any other
necessary items for their stay.

## Natural Features

Poised on the edge of an escarpment at almost 3,000 feet above Summer Lake,
Fremont Point Cabin offers a breathtaking view of the valley below. Due to the
remoteness of this site, visitors can enjoy the opportunity for personal
reflection while watching a variety of weather patterns across Summer Lake.

## Nearby Attractions

The panoramic view from the edge of the Winter Rim is amazing. And, the
National Recreational Trail which skirts along the escarpment edge provides an
endless number of opportunities to view the valley below. A short hike west
from the cabin finds a totally different ecosystem, thriving with large
ponderosa and lodge pole pine. Thirty minutes to the south are the headwaters
for the Wild and Scenic Sycan River, which is an easy day hike on the historic
Hanan Trail from the developed trailhead on FSR 28.

## Overview

Hager Mountain Lookout sits at an elevation of 7,195 feet, offering guests
spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding area. It is one of a
diminishing number of lookouts still staffed for fire detection annually
during the fire season and is open to guests in the winter months. The site is
available for rent from November 15 to May 15, offering a unique lodging
experience for guests seeking a bit of solitude and relaxation. For the
remainder of the year, it is staffed by Forest Service personnel. This rugged,
winter destination awaits the most enthusiastic outdoor adventurers as it is
only accessible by foot, snowshoes or cross-country skis. Skiing or
snowshoeing can take from a couple of hours to half a day or more, depending
on weather conditions and one's physical endurance. Travel into remote
locations in the winter requires experience and advance preparation. Expect
windy conditions.

## Recreation

Hiking, wildlife viewing, stargazing, snowshoeing and skiing are popular
activities. Hager Mountain is used during fire season to keep watch over the
surrounding flat lands for any sign of smoke. During the winter, it becomes a
winter wonderland and has one of the best snowshoeing climbs available in
southern Oregon. The strenuous 4-mile hike up the west side of the peak leads
to a panoramic view of the landscape. The lookout is a great spot for winter
camping.  
  
At night the lookout is an ideal setting for stargazing, as constellations and
planets put on a dazzling display.

## Facilities

The fire lookout is a 14' x 14' room that can accommodate up to four people.
It is furnished with three beds and mattresses. It is also equipped with a
countertop, woodstove and propane stove. Firewood is provided. A picnic table
is provided outside. A pit toilet is also located near the lookout. There is
no water on-site, so guests must bring sufficient supplies for drinking,
cooking and washing. Guests must also provide their own food, sleeping bags,
sleeping pads, a light source, towels, dish soap, matches, cooking gear, first
aid kit, toilet paper and garbage bags.

## Natural Features

A series of dome-building volcanic eruptions occurring about 8 million years
ago gave birth to Hager Mountain. The lookout is perched on the bald cap rocks
that make up this mountain and offers 360 degree views as far as Mount Hood
and Mount Shasta on a clear day.  
  
Surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks, volcanic landscapes and wide-open
sage basins, the area is known for scenic vistas and wild places where guests
can still find solitude.
