Kane Mountain Fire Observation Station, Fire observation station in Fulton County, United States

The Kane Mountain Fire Observation Station features a 60-foot steel-frame lookout tower situated at an elevation of 2,200 feet above sea level.

The station includes an observer's cabin from 1960 and offers views of Stewart Lake and Indian Lake through connecting hiking paths.
