Soda Butte Ranger Station
Built in 1930 the Soda Butte Ranger’s Station was originally located near Soda Butte Cone east of the confluence of Soda Butte Creek and the Lamar River and was moved to the Buffalo Ranch in 1938 to serve as the assistant buffalo keeper’s residence. It remains as a residence for NPS Law Enforcement Rangers and contributes to the Lamar Buffalo Ranch historic district. In the late 1990’s this house underwent a renovation to repair and replace logs, add new insulation and renovate the west facing porch which had been closed in. Unfortunately, the cliff swallows really like the open porch and it is very difficult to prevent them from building their mud nests on the logs and rafters. The house still has the old coal/wood shoot and wood stove in the basement.
