This is the Warner Guard Station. History: The Warner Guard station was built before 1935. It is a Region 4, Plan 7, two room dwelling with a Plan 24 garage to the north. It was used primarily as a summer station. Both structures are still standing. The guard station appears to be under renovation. The guard station is available for rent to the public by the Moab Ranger district during the summer season. The history of the forest can be found at the hyper-link. I like the simplicity of the interior and exterior.
This is the Mesa Guard Station, it was built before 1921. It was built as a guard station, downgraded to a guard cabin in the 1930's when the Warner Guard Station was completed and by the 1940's it had gone into a state of disrepair. The building consisted of three large rooms and a store room. It is still standing today, but is a couple of heavy snowfalls from becoming another pile of wood. I don't think that it would be repairable given the damage to the foundation. I do like the natural stonework around the foundation and want to incorporate the appearance of natural rock work into the decor. The site is still withdrawn as an Administrative area.
This is at the Mesa Guard Station, of note is the rock walk-way. I am thinking of using slate tile to mimic stone for the floor.
