I've been to that lookout (probably 20+ years ago) and was surprised at how good of shape it was in, having been abandoned for so many years. I drove the road in my '90 Plymoth Grand Voyager, and yes, the road was rough then. A small downed tree that I thought was fine to drive over, ended up pulling my muffler loose. But I was able to get it reattached. I'm glad the tower is still there in aparently the same shape it was back then. Thanks for the vid.😊

Oh, and I don't recall it having a wood stove. That is an upgrade.

I'm happy to see that you had a good, wholesome, and safe time out in the mountain lookout. A person has to be use to being alone, with silence and nature, and the view was perfect.

I watched this one 3 times already. You gave us so many things to notice. I focussed on your sound editing more and more each time. SOOO well done. Flawless. I kept watching the process and the progress of the puzzle, the wood levels, the water bottle levels, all the little "offerings" that people leave there, the Sierra Nevada IPA :) the journal saying that you can't see the sign for the spring on the tree unless you're walking back uphill (so I was looking for the sign on a tree in that part of the video haha). John Prine (Just played Angel From Montgomery last week. Happy Birthday, JP, RIP). .... Ok....your foreshadowing the stunning shots of Mount Hood the next day was awesome, and the cliffhanger at the end. So good!

Wow, thank you! This one definitely took longer to edit them most ❤️ and I did find the sign (didn't show it) but it didn't help lol I think the trail was just too wet to safely navigate!

just finished watching. i am a retired landscaping house cleaner. 1. you did a great job with the sweeping and tidying. 2. you may want to retire the fine toothed bow saw and get a foldable tree saw. easier to pack and the bigger teeth will save your arm.

[@billredding2000]

Yes...get a Silky saw (Japanese brand pull-saw) -- pricey but perhaps the very best folding saws available. The larger ones (like their "fairly large" (500mm) KatanaBoy), which can handle pretty large-diameter tree-trunks. I keep 1 in my Jeep (a GomBoy model) at all times. They come in different sizes and have several of them: The 2 mentioned, plus the BigBoy and PocketBoy = 4 saws total . Their impulse-hardened teeth last almost forever, and you can get replacement blades if they do get dull. I guess most 4x4/off-roaders who carry something to clear downed trees from trails (or cut firewood) carry gas or electric chain saws (and/or axes) but I prefer the Silky saws -- they don't need battery-charging or fuel to run (and they're silent, unlike chain saws). -- BR

[@had2galsinthebooth]

So does the logbook have a section with dates the chimney was cleaned and instructions to inspect it inside? Seems to me that would be important in a firetower, abandoned or not. Since many people use the stove and actual use is a mystery maybe someone should devise a mirror and light to look up the pipe for built up creosote. Dried out boards would light up like a stuck match. Decades ago I installed a very similar boxwood stove on the back porch, it was ok but not great burn time.

[@cq7415]

I could tell you have done much camping. You left the wood stack inside so perfect when you left. Also I noticed how clean you left the place, much better than when you came.

If you have never been camping in Oregon, you are missing out! When I lived there, I found a set of lakes up on Mt Jefferson that were right on the edge of a well used trail. Fortunately, most that hike those trails, are just there for the hike of the trail, and from my experience were not really interested in to much of the surroundings. Not that I was unsociable, but if I wanted to be around people when I was camping, I could have saved myself several miles of walking! Thanks for videos like this Rosa, They let me flash back 20+ years to when I was hiking and camping in Oregon.

[@bruceevans9664]

Interesting with a wood stove blazing, with a cook top you still used your stove. Habit or some reason? Did you bring the bow saw or was it there? Way more efficient than an axe. That reminds me of the cabins all over new zealand forestry land, rules were restock wood, clean up and anything food you don't want to carry out someone might need it. Looks like a great place and the roof didn;t leak.
