CAL-IDA

Cal Ida

## Overview

Calpine is a forest fire lookout tower that was constructed in 1934 by the
Civilian Conservation Corps, and is one of three remaining examples of the
enclosed windmill-style lookout in California. The lookout was actively used
every summer until 1975. It is a three-story structure with external stairs.
The top room or observation cab is the only rentable space at this time. This
is a popular rental facility that is booked almost every night of the year.
Calpine sits at an elevation of 5,980 feet in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of
the Tahoe National Forest, approximately 40 miles from Truckee, California.
During the summer, renters can drive directly to the base of the tower. In
winter, the road is often closed due to snow and ice so access is by
snowshoes, skis or snowmobile. The lookout has propaned-powered appliances but
does not have electricity or water.

## Recreation

Hiking and mountain biking trails are within 15 miles of the lookout. The
Pacific Crest Trail can be accessed approximately 20 miles away.

## Facilities

Hiking and mountain biking trails are within 15 miles of the lookout. The

## Natural Features

The lookout tower sits on a mountain top with views of the Sierra Valley,
Haskell Peak to the west, Nevada to the east and Lassen Peak to the far
northwest. The lookout is approximately a half hour of travel time from Sand
Pond, Sardine Lakes and the Lakes Basin Area. Wildlife is abundant in the
area. On a clear night, renters can gaze on an almost endless galaxy of stars
and meteorites.

## Charges & Cancellations

**No Show Policy**

A no-show customer is one who does not arrive at a campground and does not
cancel the reservation by check-out time on the day after the scheduled
arrival date (or for day-use facilities, by check-in time the day of arrival).

* No-show customers are only recorded at staffed facilities. At most remote facilities, all customers are noted as automatically checked-in on the date of arrival.

* It is recommended that staffed facilities hold a campsite until check-out time on the day following the arrival date.

* It is recommended that staffed facilities hold group day-use facilities until check-in time on the arrival date.

There is no change fee if a customer extends or shortens a reservation if the
change includes dates from the original reservation. If they choose to depart
early, they may forfeit some or all of the recreation fees.

There is no change fee if the customer changes campsites that are the same
price and on the same reservation dates in the same campground. If the
campsite the customer is changing to has a price difference, the customer will
be responsible for any additional fees or be provided with a refund, based on
the price difference.

Where recorded, no-show customers are assessed a $20.00 no-show fee and
forfeit the first night's recreation fee for a campsite or forfeit the entire
day-use recreation fee for a day-use facility. We recommend customers contact
the facility if they are en route to their reservation but cannot make it by
the check-in date. In these cases, no refund will be issued, but the facility
can ensure that a "no-show" fee is not assessed.
