Fire Lookouts
Staying in a fire lookout in Oregon can be an amazing and unique experience. They were built as the first line of defense against forest fires and some are still used to this day for that purpose. Many are available to rent for overnight stays. They are generally located in remote areas, often on mountaintops or in wilderness areas which means that you’ll need to be prepared for a rustic experience and bring all the necessary supplies with you. Because of their high elevation and remote locations, some are only accessible during Summer and Fall. However, Oregon has experienced increasingly severe forest fires in the Summer so it’s best to book these as early in the season as possible.
Lookouts are typically small structures with minimal amenities. You can expect to find a bed, a table and chairs, and a stove for cooking. Some lookouts may also have a pit toilet, but others may not have any bathroom facilities. You’ll need to bring your own food, water, and bedding. It goes without saying, this is a “Pack it in, Pack it out” experience. Leave no trace.
The stunning views of the surrounding landscape, and outdoor recreation opportunities make for an incredible experience for those who are prepared for a rustic and remote adventure.
