About this place
One of many crew quarters scattered over the remote areas of the National Forests, this Guard Station was built in the depression years by Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) crews. The building has many unique and laborious details crafted with care by now unknown artisans. These buildings were originally occupied in the summer seasons by field crews who worked in the woods marking timber to be cut, fighting fires, or surveying for roads. This building is no longer used by Forest Service crews, but may one day be available as a recreation rental cabin.
