Mt Porndon fire tower is used to spot any sign of smoke and fire before it gets bigger. Even though you can't get up to it you are still able to see it and some of the view.
Mt Porndon fire tower sits at an elevation of 280m above sea level and has been in use since 1960. On days of high fire danger, a fire tower operator will sit in the 2.5m x 2.5 m tower cabin and keep a 360 degree eye on the area for signs of smoke. Smoke sightings are reported and fire trucks respond to put the fire out before they get to dangerous sizes. Tower operators are important 'eyes in the sky!' Take a look around, enjoy the views. Stay safe geocachers! You are looking for a nano.
