In an effort to avoid inclement weather, yet finish work before peak tourism months, Look Rock Tower will be closed from February 27th – March 23rd.
The 360-degree observation tower located a short hike from Foothills Parkway will be closed to allow the Blount County Sheriff’s Department to install a new radio repeater to upgrade communication on the south side of Chilhowee Mountain. This installation will enhance the department’s communications as first responders to overnight emergencies in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Fort Loudon Electric will also install a responder on the tower.
