Tuolumne Meadows Ranger Stations And Comfort Stations
The Tuolumne Meadows Ranger Station and Comfort Stations are examples of National Park Service Rustic design in Yosemite National Park. They are within the Tuolumne Meadows Historic District at Tuolumne Meadows. The ranger station was built in 1924 using peeled log construction. The ranger station doubled as the park entrance station for the Tioga Road. Its function was partly superseded by a newer structure in 1936, using larger quantities of stonework.

Famous quotes containing the words meadows, stations and/or comfort:
“Up from the meadows rich with corn,
Clear in the cool September morn,”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
“A reader who quarrels with postulates, who dislikes Hamlet because he does not believe that there are ghosts or that people speak in pentameters, clearly has no business in literature. He cannot distinguish fiction from fact, and belongs in the same category as the people who send cheques to radio stations for the relief of suffering heroines in soap operas.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
“Oh, God, make small
The old star-eaten blanket of the sky,
That I may fold it round me and in comfort lie.”
—Thomas Ernest Hulme (1883–1917)
