It is located south of Paradox in Essex County and is contained within the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness Area.

The mountain is the highest in the wilderness area, and is located upon the northwest shore of Pharaoh Lake.

At the time no tower was needed as views from the mountain were unobstructed due to lack of tree cover.

The structure built was a wooden pole frame with a canvas tarp where the observer could get away from the weather.

Also it was removed due to it being a "non-conforming" structure in the Pharaoh Lakes Wilderness Area.
