. "The lookout trees in Kaibab National Forest are the survivors of a system of improvised fire lookout towers that used tall, straight trees as vantage points. The practice of using trees as lookouts was widespread in the western United States during the early 20th century, as there was no need to build a foundation or to pack and assemble a tower structure. Instead, a prominent tree could be selected, and a ladder or a series of spikes could be attached to the tree trunk. For transient use this could be all that was done, but for more permanent use the top 10 feet (3.0 m) of the tree could be lopped, and a platform constructed on the resulting stump. This railed platform was then outfitted with a seat and a platform for an Osborne Fire Finder."@en . . "64000046" . . . . "1032479250"^^ . . . . . . . . "36.74666666666667 -112.21805555555555" . .

A Multiple Property Submission survey of lookout trees in Kaibab National Forest and Grand Canyon National Park in northern Arizona was carried out in 1987 as an addendum to a survey of fire towers in Arizona. Surviving trees with significant remains of their lookout function were individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places and were described in the MPS. Many of these lookouts were established between 1905 and 1920. Many more trees existed than were nominated, but the missing trees have either disappeared or were not located. No lookout trees were noted in Grand Canyon National Park, though some had existed. \n* Cooper Ridge Lookout Tree, reference number 91001962, 36\u00B044\u203248\u2033N 112\u00B013\u20325\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.74667\u00B0N 112.21806\u00B0W \n* Corral Lake Lookout Tree, reference number 91001954, 36\u00B036\u203218\u2033N 112\u00B015\u203258\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.60500\u00B0N 112.26611\u00B0W \n* Fracas Lookout Tree, reference number 91001955, 36\u00B039\u203239\u2033N 112\u00B016\u203216\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.66083\u00B0N 112.27111\u00B0W \n* Grandview Lookout Tree, reference number 91001945, 35\u00B055\u203258\u2033N 111\u00B058\u203244\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF35.93278\u00B0N 111.97889\u00B0W \n* Hull Tank Lookout Tree, reference number 91001947, 35\u00B056\u203225\u2033N 111\u00B057\u203228\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF35.94028\u00B0N 111.95778\u00B0W \n* Little Mountain Lookout Tree, reference number 91001950, 36\u00B035\u203222\u2033N 112\u00B021\u203230\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.58944\u00B0N 112.35833\u00B0W \n* Summit Mountain Lookout Tree, reference number 91001948, 35\u00B07\u203251\u2033N 112\u00B07\u203256\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF35.13083\u00B0N 112.13222\u00B0W \n* Tater Point Lookout Tree, reference number 91001946, 36\u00B032\u203222\u2033N 112\u00B06\u20325\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.53944\u00B0N 112.10139\u00B0W \n* Telephone Hill Lookout Tree, reference number 91001952, 36\u00B032\u203250\u2033N 112\u00B010\u203233\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.54722\u00B0N 112.17583\u00B0W \n* Tipover Lookout Tree, reference number 91001953, 36\u00B021\u203256\u2033N 112\u00B08\u203219\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF36.36556\u00B0N 112.13861\u00B0W \n* Tusayan Lookout Tree, reference number 91001951, 35\u00B058\u203216\u2033N 112\u00B08\u203211\u2033W\uFEFF / \uFEFF35.97111\u00B0N 112.13639\u00B0W All were individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 13, 1992."@en . .
