A nicer, and more panoramic, view than that from Mt. Lemmon Lookout. And less burnt, these days.

The awning supports being slightly angled instead of vertical gives the lookout a distinctive appearance.

I also enjoyed your recent comet photo.

Cheers!

How do you get food and water?

Here in Maine, old school fire wardens had cabins near their towers and some serious "warden trails" to get to them.
