Timber Mountain has significance in that it hosts a fire lookout that is manned full-time during the fire season, looking for potential fire out breaks with a great 360 degree view of forested lands below. Visitors to Timber Mountain may also visit a benchmark series, TIMBER, at this link: TIMBER benchmark series as well as visiting the Timber Fire Lookout here: Timber Fire Lookout. The fire lookout is technically not open to the public but if you approach nicely, usually the person manning the station is receptive to having visitors walk up to the lookout to learn about its purpose.
Altitude in Feet: 5090
