All that is left of the fire lookout on Mount Peavine is this concrete footing. Photo by Richard Carey on July 6, 2010. The following is a description from the National Historic Lookout Register site:

The state lookout at Peavine Mountain in southern Oregon came to life as a rag camp in 1920, serving until an L-4 on a 40’ pole tower was constructed in 1933. In 1961 the present 14’x14’ flattop cab on a 41’ treated timber tower was built. This tower was condemned and burned in November 2006. This lookout was destroyed in 2007.

The primary bechmark is missing. This is reference mark #2 for Peavine found near the concrete footings. Placed in 1943.
