The ol' Fire Tower in Taylor County, Georgia, USA - about 2/3rd to the tower.
The Georgia Forestry Commission's post in Taylor County still has, in great condition, one of the few remaining Fire Towers. The Fire Towers are no longer used and it is uncommon for them to be utilized. It is considered rather dangerous to climb them in any condition, and in fact it is illegal to do so without permission.
You'll see it was a hazy start to Summer! I hope to return soon to take a pano of the tower room itself as well as peering out the windows.
