Lookout Butte Lookout, Idaho : Lookout Butte Lookout sits at 5,869 feet in elevation with breathtaking views of the Selway Crags in the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness area, the Seven Devils Mountain range, Coolwater Ridge, Pilot Knob Lookout and the Lochsa and Selway river drainages.

The lookout has a history that spans nearly 80 years and has been home to 3 lookout towers. The first, built in 1923, was 45 feet tall with just a platform to stand on. A cabin was put on the tower a couple years later. In 1935, a 50-foot tower was constructed. A new tower was built beside the old one in 1962, and this is currently available for rent.

The current 60-foot wooden tower offers a panoramic view and the perfect setting for enjoying the area's tranquility and natural beauty. Visitors can enjoy the scenery from the exterior catwalk or from inside the single-room cabin.

These are images of the lookout, the interior, views from the lookout and some lightning strikes over the Prairie! The highlight of staying in a lookout tower. Stay tuned for timelapse video!
