Historic Main Boulder Ranger Station

In 1991, the Forest Service started the preservation and restoration process to stabilize the Main Boulder Ranger Station, paying close attention to historic detail due to its historic and architectural significance. It is widely recognized as a historic remnant, representative of the early era of the American conservation movement.

Today, a visit to the site allows visitors to look back into the past and experience what it was like to live and work in the Boulder area in the early days.
