- Forest Fire Lookout Association
- The Forest Fire Lookout Association
(FFLA), founded in 1990, is an organization involved in research of former forest fire
lookout sites, ground cabins and early forest fire detection methods. Anecdotes of
Lookout operators both past and present are documented. The organization encourages
efforts of public groups and others in the restoration of forest fire lookouts.

- Rex's Forest
Fire Lookout Page
- Forest fire lookouts have captured the
imaginations of people for years. They have been the settings for books, television shows
and movies. In the past 30 years, numerous lookouts have been shut down in favor of aerial
patrols and reports from residents and passers-by. Still, some towers continue to be
staffed every summer, some by volunteers, others by fully paid personnel.
