NOTES
Additional Information:According to the USFS Infrastructure (Infra) database, the work center was built in 1986. It includes two buildings, located in a clearing on the north side of the main campground road, 0.1-mile northeast of the Beaver Loop entrance. A small building to the right of the main work center building is identified by a sign on the front as an oil shed. It sits on a poured concrete slab, which extends in an apron in front of the building. The building has no windows and is accessed by a front double door fastened by a sliding bolt with two rectangular grilled vents at the bottom. The cladding is light brown T1-11 plywood, and the gabled roof is covered with asphalt shingles. A metal vent pipe extends from the roof. A shed-roofed extension on the back of the building has open shelves used to store lumber.
