We had a wonderful time! It is a beautiful view of the Big Horn Mountains.

The lookout was amazing. Clean, had everything we needed, safe, comfortable. We were lucky to have nice, unseasonably warm weather. The propane heater kept us warm when the temps dropped at night. We cooked delicious meals on the propane stove. There was a propane fridge and oven that we didn't use. The futon was surprisingly comfy.

This is a very well kept lodging, warm and comfortable in all ways inspite of the very cold muddy period we were there. Others should treat themselves to the high altitude experience.

All the comforts of home - propane stove with oven, full size refrigerator/freezer, propane heater and lights. Just bring your water and you are all set. Only downside is cabin atop a tall, steep butte and can be quite a chore getting gear and people up to the cabin. May be a problem for elderly, kids or those less fit. Also outhouse is at base of butte and quite a hike down for those night time visits. Trail up to cabin can get quite muddy and slick when it rains. Highest point in Custer Forest provides beautiful panoramic views. Windows around all 4 sides.

This lookout was very clean. The ranger was there when we arrived and was nice. The turn off at the main road wasn’t well marked but that is my only complaint. We have been visiting a couple of lookouts a year for a while and Diamond Butte and Minton Peak on this visit were the cleanest and most inviting of any so far. Wish they were all so well maintained.
