The structures demonstrate how traditional construction methods were applied to blend buildings with their natural setting.

The district received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998 for its role in preserving the region's architectural heritage. This designation highlighted how Park Service construction practices influenced building design across Wyoming.

The buildings here show how people connected structures to the surrounding landscape. You can see how natural materials and the environment were meant to work together in daily use.
