Quinn Ranger Station

The Quinn Ranger Station features a one-room log cabin construction that exemplifies early National Park Service architectural design principles in Sequoia National Park.

Built in 1907, this station remains the sole surviving ranger facility from the period when the United States Army administered Sequoia National Park.

The station demonstrates the evolution of national park management, transitioning from military oversight to professional civilian ranger administration in the United States.

Visitors can access the station through established paths in Sequoia National Park while learning about early forest conservation methods and park administration.

The station, designed by architect Harry Britten, incorporates local materials and construction techniques that minimize its impact on the surrounding natural environment.
