These original shingles were removed during restoration and are now available in four sizes, from small to extra large. Each one has been thoughtfully laser-designed by a local artist who donated their time to this project. We have a limited quantity of shingles for sale, be sure to purchase before they sell out.Every purchase directly supports the continued restoration and care of the lookout.
You can order yours now on our website and pick it up at the White Pass Country Museum
