Great trip !!

I think it was Bunyan Velo that did a feature on these look out towers and they have real appeal .. a friend in Topanga just posted a similar trip.

Paul, yup. That was my article in Bunyan Velo last year. Do you have that link to your friend's report. I'd love to read it.

Most of them you do have to book in advance. But there are a few that are first-come first-serve.

That looks like a really nice lookout.

I've never met Lucas, but we have chatted on the phone a bunch.
