About Sex Peak. Lookout Rental

Sex Peak Lookout is situated in the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 5,772 feet in the Kootenai National Forest. The original lookout was constructed in the early 1920s and replaced by the current lookout in 1948. The peak was named by I.V. Anderson, an early forester, and Harry Baker, supervisor of what was then Cabinet National Forest. It is rumored that they named the peak after their topic of conversation at the time. The lookout is typically open from late June through mid-October and is accessible by car. This rustic retreat offers a few amenities, but guests should pack in most of their own supplies and gear.

Overall, a good experience. One of the windows (north) was boarded up and in need of replacement or repair to allow better ventilation. Vault toilet was clean and in good order.

Stayed at this lookout with family. There were loads of huckleberries along the road. Overall, the lookout was in decent shape but there were so many bees! They were aggressive buggers too. This sort of ruined things a bit as you couldn't really spend too much time during the daytime outside in the near vicinity of the lookout.

Great lookout! The road was well marked and did not require 4WD, although a high-clearance vehicle would be good. The lookout was spotless upon arrival. Great 360° view. Outhouse was clean and we appreciated the decor. 😁. The weather was rainy, foggy, smoky, cloudy, and sunny. We would definitely rent this one again. The screens on the windows were especially appreciated.

We had a great time again, and the huckleberry picking was much better this year. We love the views from the mountain top.

My husband & I have 150 years of age between us & this lookout was most comfortable for our cold camping needs. We spent a good amount of time in our camp chairs on the catwalk basking in the summer air. Unique to have a few opening screened windows for cabin comfort. Reading the logbook was a pleasant activity. Also hiking in the trees finding some huckleberries, whortleberries & photographing trees, rocks and wildflowers. We did see a mule deer pair one morning right at the parking area. Road was in good shape, last little bit slow going yet appreciate no sharp rocks!
