Summary[edit]

Description The Tusayan Lookout Tree is an example of the one of the earliest fire detection systems in American history built in the early 1900's. Rangers would venture to the highest point on the landscape and look for fires. Forest managers have protected it over the years during controlled fires. It is easily accessed by taking Forest Road 605, aka South Long Jim Loop road (off of State Route 64) and parking by the AOS substation then walking to the northwest side of the substation.
