Details: Mount June was once the site of a fire lookout from the 1920s to the 1960s in the Hardesty Mountain area. These days, hikers can take in views from the summit, which now only feature foundation pillars from the former lookout. The trek up to the summit is only a mile, so a side trip to Sawtooth Rock is in order, which includes a stroll through an open meadow along the way.Driving time: 2 hours
