A nearby interpretive display highlights the history of this CCC-built building and tells us:
Administration Office
This building was constructed in 1936 by the Civilian Conservation Corps and used as the Redwood Ranger Station at Cave Junction where the smokejumper program was administered from its beginnings in 1943. In 1962, the building was moved to the base where it was used to administer the smokejumping program until the Siskiyou Smokejumper Base closed in 1981.
This former administrative office building is now part of a museum complex and open to visitors during daylight hours.
The Wild Rivers Ranger Station is located where this admin office used to be and the Original Location coordinates are based off that location.
