Worth stopping for
Joe Butts Lookout
On the way to…
A mapped viewpoint just off the highway at the Deer Lake end — the cheapest look you will get at the country you are about to drive into.
Stopping here adds about 3 min and 1.6 km to that drive (39 min door to door).
Drive it with your own nav:Organic Maps →OsmAnd →Apple →Google →Waze →The first two run on OpenStreetMap and don't track you — the same map this site is built from.
What the map knows

The map last touched this element on 2026-05-08 — an old date is not proof of closure, only of nobody updating the map; if you know better, edit OpenStreetMap and every site built on it learns.
All of it read from the cited element and this site's own measured stops (2026-09-05); nothing above is our endorsement — it is the map's record.
Where this pin comes from: OpenStreetMap node/10699394524 → — the same element every figure on this page is checked against.
