Kennaday Peak, rising to 10794ft/3290m, is on the Brush Creek-Hayden Ranger District of the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests in southern Wyoming. It is the site of a manned fire lookout, the last fully functional lookout on the district. From Kennaday Peak there is a breathtaking 360-degree view of the surrounding mountains, including Medicine Bow Peak in the Snowy Range, and the vast Platte River Valley. The fire lookout welcomes visitors and has a photo display of other fire lookouts and firefighter gear. The first fire lookout on Kennaday Peak was built by the CCC in the 1930's and it was one of six in the area. In 1964 the present 15’x 15’ R-6 flattop with catwalk was built on a 10’ concrete block base.
