From the parking on the ridge, the road becomes more of an ATV trail. Walk the enjoyable ATV route to the summit with views most of the way.
In 1932, a 15-foot pole tower with an L-4 cab was built.
In 1940, the tower was abandoned.

Lost Creek Ridge Lookout Site

Find your way onto Lost Creek Road off the East Side Road. Pass the entrance to the Sundance Mountain Lodge. Use map provided. The road is fairly good to the bridge crossing of Lost Creek. After this point, the road has some rough rocky spots and water bars. I would recommend high clearance but you could likely do without 4 wheel-drive.
