Description
The original lookout in Bly was a platform on the roof of a warehouse at the Klamath FPA station in 1934. When this station was closed in the mid 1950s, the Forest Service erected the 20' wooden tower in their compound which was several blocks from the KFPA station. The cab from the USFS tower is currently located in the town park.
