Remarks:

From Cherokee National Forest Hiking Guide: "The current tower is the fifth to stand on the site. In 1926, the tower was nothing more than a platform between three chestnut trees with a small tent. This tent office housed a hand-crank telephone that was used to send news of fires that had been spotted. "

converted to platform in 2012.
