Photo, taken in 2022 and supplied in Jan 2025 by Jared Murray. Jared also reported the following information in Jan 2025:
The tower still stands as you can see it from Kalpowar but unsure of it's condition. Last time I was up there you couldn't get to either tower due to a huge hoop pine that was across the road. About 200m before the towers. Also it's 4wd only to the top. A bit steep and rutted out, but certainly doable in a good 4wd with some clearance.
The another tower nearby is the Kalpowar radio communications tower and it does have a camera part of the way up which I assume is the HQ Plantations camera.

This tower is in the Kalpower State Forest and looks over Plantation timber.
