Clackamas Lake Ranger Station Historic District




Inside the Mount Hood National Forest is the Clackamas Lake Ranger Station Historic District. This site is basically a compound composed of eleven historic buildings. It was built around the early 1930s, from 1933 to 1935.

Constructed to serve as a district ranger station for the Clackamas Lake Ranger District, it is composed of a station office, ranger’s residences, mess hall, warehouses, storage building, barn, pump house, and a blacksmith shop. The 1933 ranger’s residence is open for rentals for recreational visitors.

If you’re looking into visiting the area, other activities can also be enjoyed for sure. For one, there’s a campground right by the Clackamas Lake Ranger Station Historic District. It is also near the Clackamas and Timothy Lakes. There are also hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking can also be enjoyed here. .




The cache is just down the road so it away from the muggles. Was out on one of the great miss-adventures First To Find runs of TheOldman-34 and Two Finders Keepers all most 1 year ago. When we placed this cache. Some how I deleted the coords out of my gps. Just got back up there to get new ones.
