Big Bar Ranger Station has both modern and historic buildings. Today, the old ranger station includes eight, wood-framed structures and features a 1934 ranger's residence and crew barracks, a 1941 office, and a garage possibly built in 1932. Ask the reception person at the office for more history on this interesting place along the scenic Trinity River.
Restrooms are at the main office.
The station is immediately behind the present Big Bar Ranger District office. Drive to the parking area and walk a short distance, uphill.
