BIG HOODOO MOUNTAIN
Lincoln County - Kootenai National Forest - 28N-31W-1
July 17, 1930: "Mr. Byers reports that a new lookout station is being constructed on Big Hoodoo, with a trail and telephone line to the top of the mountain. In order to get the proper vision from the mountain top it has been necessary to construct a tower 85 feet high, which is the highest tower on the Kootenai national forest, says Ranger Byers, Jack Halfstead is to be stationed on Big Hoodoo."

September 2, 1938: "George Reynolds, Snowshoe creek farmer and arthritis sufferer, today had solved the problem of being brought to town for medical attention.
A truckload of CCC youths, ordered to Reynold's farm by a Hoodoo mountain forest lookout, brought him here.
Reynolds first tried to attract attention of nearby fishermen by firing rifle shots in the air. When that failed he fired one of his haystacks, and, for good measure, set fire to a small shack on his property.
Although the youths extinguished the blazes, it was not reported if they cleaned the rifle." (Montana Standard)
