With an outstanding view of the red rocks country near fabled Sedona, Turkey Butte Lookout is a popular destination and viewpoint. The 32' Aermotor MC-24 tower, constructed in 1937, is of the design that was used in New Mexico and Arizona, but rare elsewhere. The wood 14' x 14' cab without catwalk is based on the L-4 design, but appears quite different.
