The SC tower website is complete with lots of great lookout photos and some Google maps of SC tower locations - something I haven't seen before but I'm thrilled someone is documenting them.
While researching for my book, a former Nantahala National Forest district ranger told me that the Albert Mountain lookout near Franklin, NC was moved from South Carolina in 1951 and re-erected in North Carolina. Attempts by FFLA SC representative Ron Stafford to find a removed tower from SC matching the make and model of the Albert Mountain tower have proven unsuccessful, and its original location remains in doubt.
