The following information was found in correspondence supplied by David Bannear.
Carrajung was a temporary cabin, replacing Little Tower which burnt down in 1972. The lookout had no field of vision to the West. A considerable investment had taken place in plantation forests not covered by Carrajung and areas of Park and Protected Public Land had increased and attracted increased attention so the lookout was doomed.
It was replaced in 1983 by Blackwarry Tower.
