Battered by the weather, this table is near a pull-off that also features a memorial to a Forest Service employee who was killed in an air-tanker crash while fighting a nearby forest fire. The table identifies the four most prominent peaks in the range: Monjeau, Sierra Blanca (White Mountain), Buck Mountain and Lookout Mountain. It also includes information on the plants and wildlife found in the area.
