This grass-covered ridge has been the site of a Lookout Building since 1954 when it partially replaced Cameron Lookout on Mount Burke. The access road was bulldozed into the eastern slopes creating a huge "Z." This eyesore was reclaimed in 1986 and, from a distance at least, is not nearly as noticable.
