Description

Manzano Lookout was constructed for the Department of Defense on the Cibola National Forest. Kirtland Air Force Base is just west of the lookout.

The construction date is unknown. The structure is in poor condition and appears to be a 30 foot K-Brace open steel tower with an L-4 cab atop.
