Friends of Yellow River State Forest seeking historical information about fire tower ...

The Friends of Yellow River State Forest are working to establish the fire tower at Yellow River State Forest (pictured above) on the National Register of Historic Places. Any assistance with any historic documents pertaining to the fire tower would be much appreciated. The group is looking for newspaper articles, documents and/or pictures anyone may have of the tower, or even anecdotal stories of their fondness for the tower. With the historic aspect in mind, the further back the materials go (even 50 years), the better. Email documents, stories, etc. to dvpeters@goacentek.net. Mailed documents or letters can be sent to: Friends of Yellow River State Forest, P.O. Box 171, Harpers Ferry, IA 52146. Submitted photo.
