Lake Mountain Lookout Complex
The Lake Mountain Lookout Complex is a 49-foot tall lookout tower erected in 1926 approximately 20 miles east of Lakeside, Arizona. It overlooks a portion of the Apache-Sitgreaves [National Forest]. The lookout was staffed by a forest ranger who was stationed at the nearby Los [Burros Ranger Station], from which they would ride out to the lookout each day. The tower was constructed atop Lake Mountain, at the 8,250 foot elevation, by the Aermotor [Windmill Company].
