Hiking
The first version of the fire lookout was built in the early 20th century and up until today, the rebuilt tower from mid 20th century overlooks Bass Lake and is a popular hiking destination.

Running
Great lookout point onto Bass Lake and the Sierra National Forest. There is a fire lookout at the top, that was originally built in 1934. Currently, the site is only used as a radio relay site and not for fire detection.
