the observation tower

With mountains being the only companion, lonely forest rangers are barely in people’s discussions. Hailed as “guards of the forest”, forest rangers are entrusted with the great responsibility of patrolling around the forest day and night. They need to remain vigilant at all times and they have to endure the most intense and exhausting long season of fire prevention, from early winter to the onset of summer. The observation tower is designed for rangers to examine potential fire disasters in time .
