Scenic View/Photo Spot, Wheelchair Accessible

Off to the right of the overlook, you can see Round Top Mountain, which is home to a fire lookout tower staffed during the summer. Summer thunderstorms keep the lookout busy reporting “smokes" produced by lightning strikes. Fire plays a natural role in the ecosystem and helps maintain a healthy diversity of plant and animal life. The goal of fire management at Dinosaur is to mimic the frequency, timing, and size of fires as they would have occurred prior to the late 1800s.
