About this property

The Stockmore Ranger Station, is a ranger station in Ashley National Forest in Duchesne County, Utah, United States, near Tabiona, that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The station was built in c.1914 and is located off State Route 35, about 40 miles (64 km) northwest of Duchesne. It was a work of U.S. Forest Service architects. It was listed on the NRHP in 1999; the listing included five contributing buildings and five non-contributing buildings and structures, built from c.1914 to 1985. It is significant as a memento of the early days of the U.S. Forest Service, which had been established in 1905. The station established a Federal presence and its main building is one of the "earliest remaining structures on the Ashley National Forest built specifically by the Forest Service to house a ranger." It is named for the former town of Stockmore, about 1/4 mile to the east, which had been abandoned around 1906 after it was discovered that supposed gold strike in the area had been a fraud.
