Towers can be very hard to spot in the haze. There is a 1500ft
tower on the top of a 2500ft ridge between Watsonville (WVI) and
South County (E16 (formerly Q99)). On a clear day, it isn't easy
to see. With fog/haze, it becomes invisible.

I took these shots on a somewhat hazy day:

There are strobes on it, but the tower itself is a flat grey, which
is very good at blending into the haze/fog.

31. Only 500 feet off the centerline and just over a mile from the
threshold. At least Kalispell is not subject to obscuration.
