Reviews
a great trail to the Balsam Lake Mountain Fire Tower BUT I FIND IT MORE ENJOYABLE FROM THE Dry Brook Ridge Trail Parking Area that starts from across the street from the parking area. even tho this is a longer hike (6.5 total) than Balsam Lake Trail at the end of Turnwood road. you'll find the hardest push to the tower is the last 1/2 at around 400 feet elevation gain. you'll have a steep rocky descent leaving the tower and this is where we ran into a lot of black flies. i strongly suggest you bring plenty of water and drink your fill and refill at the springs when you make your way back to the parking area. the views are awesome and you'll have an outhouse and one picnic table but don't forget to look for the geocache that's been there since 2013.
Easy hike even in snow and great views on a sunny day. It's windy and cold, particularly at the top of tower
A relatively easy hike (with a little bit of huff-n-puff toward the end) in pretty woods leads to this well-maintained fire tower, with breathtaking 360 degree views from the top. A super friendly ranger was there to answer questions. There is an outhouse and a ranger cabin that is open to the public as well. A great way to spend an afternoon!
Great hike. Another Fire Tower done! Wish we could have had some views, but too much cloud cover. Nice winds, 12.2 mph and we were right in the clouds.
Great hike beautiful day
