Rocky Mountain National Park Utility Area Historic District

Larimer County

The utility area reflects the National Park Service’s concern for blending structures with the natural environment.  The half-log and plank buildings, begun in 1923 at the Beaver Meadows Entrance, were completed during the 1930s under government work projects.
