Elwha Ranger Station

The Elwha Ranger Station is a historic district in Olympic National Park, originally built in the 1930s for the U.S. Forest Service.

Construction is typical of USFS practice, and reflects the Forest Service's preference of the time for bungalow and American Craftsman style architecture.

In the mid-1930s a Civilian Conservation Corps camp was established nearby, contributing labor for forest construction projects.

The one-story wood-frame structure is covered with half-log siding on the lower walls in two widths and shingles on the gables.

The oil and grease building has a residential character, with stylized pine tree cut-outs in the gables and curved support brackets on the front porch.
