It's a shame they are so essential, but a blessing also.

Looks rather precarious sitting on top of the mountain. Excellent shot, Bryan. V

this would have been a forlorn place to pass the day...perhaps just as well the watch has been automated..

I agree with Yvonne's comment - would not want to be up there if there were a fire to be spotted.

Nice shot of the tower. Hopefully no fires will be spotted.

I wouldn't want that job up there!

It would have been so scary being isolated there when a fire came raging... v
