Today, Watchman Observation Station and Watchman Trail retain integrity of views and vistas as they continue to present park personnel and park visitors with views of Hillman Peak (8151’) to the north; Mount Shasta (14161’), Castle Point (6276’), and the Klamath Basin to the south; Wizard Island and Crater Lake’s caldera to the east; and the Rogue River Valley to the west. These views were visible during the period of significance and were envisioned in the Crater Lake Master Plan.
