Mount Coolidge Fire Tower
The 6,023-foot summit known as Sheep Mountain was renamed Mount Coolidge in 1927 when President Calvin Coolidge vacationed in Custer State Park. During the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps built a stone fire-lookout tower atop the mountain, and that tower is still in use today. Visitors willing to brave a steep, narrow, curvy, 1.2-mile gravel road can drive to the summit to see the tower and take in the panoramic views.
