Description

This is a really picturesque tower location on a site is still owned by the State of Tennessee.  The house was once home to the county forester but now just contains their offices.  The tower is an 80ft Aermotor LS-80.  It's climbable but the turkey vultures kept me from venturing to the top.

Site visit - 11/24/23
