Loudoun Heights site is a tower that was never actually built. Back when the ridgetop was privately owned, a campground was planned with an observation tower. The project never got off the ground and the tower was never built, although the footings and bottom stairs still remain at the site. The original AT route went right past the tower footings and they are mentioned in the old AT guidebooks.
