History

The ranger station's buildings were built in 1934 by the CCC−Civilian Conservation Corps.

The administration of timber sales was one of the ranger's main duties; the lumber mill town of Standard is located about three miles to the south.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its architecture, which is American Craftsman and Bungalow style. It was designed by architects of the USDA Forest Service.

The NRHP listing included three contributing buildings which served as government housing and as office space, located on 3 acres (1.2 ha).[1]
