Very exciting news to start off the month of October. Blue Ridge Outdoors magazine has featured fire towers as their cover story this month. Of course, it's no secret that the towers are perhaps the best locations to enjoy this month's coming fall color. Numerous towers in the southeast are featured in the article; most are in North Carolina. These include the towers on Yellow Mountain, Mt. Sterling, and Chambers Mountain. You may recognize several of the photographs, too.

As if this isn't exciting enough, Blue Ridge Outdoors also included a small write-up about our efforts to save the Shuckstack lookout tower, complete with a photograph. They also featured the Carolina Mountain Club's new Lookout Tower Challenge (LTC). This is fantastic news for lookout towers in North Carolina as this article will go great lengths to recognizing them as scenic and historic hiking destinations as well as bringing attention to fire tower preservation in the southeast. More on this to come, but make sure to pick up your own print copy of this month's BRO at your local outfitter.
