History
1
Dufur Ranger Station in Dufur, Oregon, has served as the local U.S. Forest Service district office since 1892 and was built as the administrative headquarters for the Barlow Ranger District of the Mount Hood National Forest. Rather than a single building, it is a small working complex whose main office is accompanied by practical support structures, including shops, storage buildings, housing, and bunkhouse units. Its significance also reaches into the New Deal era, when a Civilian Conservation Corps side camp operated there from the F-9 Friend Camp in the 1930s, tying the station to regional forest development and land management.
