Location

From Down and Out Towers, OFY Tower can be seen poking above the mesa to the right (southwest) on the drive in. To get there, instead of making the last left turn up to the Down and Out Towers, keep going on the "main" two-track until it dead ends. OFY Tower will be directly in front of you. 20min approach (get up on rock ledges to the left of the tower).
