Redwood Meadow Ranger Station, Ranger station in Sequoia National Park, United States.
The Redwood Meadow Ranger Station is a small facility in Sequoia National Park built from three rooms and a barn constructed using stone and wood from the local area. The building follows the National Park Service rustic design style, meant to blend naturally into the surrounding forest landscape.
The station was designed in 1938 by the National Park Service Branch of Plans and Designs and built between 1938 and 1941 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. This construction was part of the park's efforts to develop visitor infrastructure and management facilities during that period.
The station represents the National Park Service's commitment to building structures that integrate with natural surroundings while serving operational needs in national parks.
This station sits in the mountains of Tulare County surrounded by dense forest, so sturdy footwear and weather-appropriate clothing are essential when visiting. The hikes in this area can take several hours, so bring plenty of water and snacks for your time outdoors.
The building was constructed in part by young men of the Civilian Conservation Corps, a 1930s New Deal program that combined employment with conservation work. This dual mission shaped the place and remains visible in how the structure was built to last.
