Building is in need of repairs, especially around the windows. Large gaps let in a huge amount of flies and bees. The mattress on the bed was pretty stained and not something we wanted to touch. We took it off and put on of the air mattresses we brought on. The views though are beautiful and the bathroom was clean and well stocked.

We had a great time watching a thunderstorm roll in. The views are beautiful and you can explore in all directions. Only downside is way too many visitors. Do not have any expectation of privacy, even in the slightest. There are people coming up the lookout constantly. It is very popular! So, if you love company, this is the place for you!

Overall the lookout is really great. However, you'll either get lucky with the wind or you won't. It took us about 3 1/2 hours to ski up with a sled with the last mile taking the longest due to the intense wind. The cabin shook all night and we couldn't get the place warm so our liquids froze. If it wasn't for the wind, we would have been super stoked. Now I hear you all saying oh why didn't they check the weather, well we did and it said around 15 mph when it was more like 50. these strong winds also blew so much snow in front of the toilets it would have taken an hour or so to dig it out. Be prepared if you go in winter and it is better to head up early so that if the weather sucks you can ski back down in 1-2 hours.

Snow shoed in on the road, very windy and icy near the top. So windy! Very difficult to chop wood in the wind. Very loud with the wind during the night, hard to keep the fire going and warm enough during the night. Very drafty in the lookout. Lots of wood available but difficult given then wind. Memorable experience for sure. We left a night early.
