Oak Flat Lookout/cabin
Access via Rancheria Rd., located in the Greenhorn Mtns offers rustic camping in the tower and below the tower. This lookout was once used by the Forest Service to spot fires, and can now be rented for $75 a night. It offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains, and is great for stargazers.
