Hickory Ridge Fire Tower
.
Hickory ridge fire tower is located in Hoosier national forest, Indiana (close to Bloomington, IN). The tower, built in 1936, has been manned and used as a lookout tower to protect the forest from wildfire. It is the last lookout tower remaining in the Hoosier national forest.
Though the tower is not used for fire tracking purpose now, it is used by visitors to experience a wonderful panoramic view of the Hoosier forest. We visited there in early Fall 2010 and here are some pictures....
