An observation deck with metal railings on top of a mountain. There are informational panels attached to the railing, likely providing details about the view or the location. In the background, there is a clear sky with some clouds and a vast landscape of greenery that extends to the horizon. Also visible are communication towers next to the deck.

A fire lookout tower stands atop a forested mountain, framed by a clear blue sky. The tall metal structure has an enclosed observation cabin at its summit, supported by sturdy beams. A large satellite dish is mounted to one side, and a tall antenna extends above the roof. Below, dense green trees blanket the landscape, stretching into a horizon of rolling hills and distant mountains.
