Let's wrap up Russell Prater with a couple of station shots.
When the highway was being built, I was told FD members asked the construction company to "blast out" a part of the mountain so that a station could be built by the main road. That was done. The rear and sides of the station is literally surrounded by a curtain of rock and trees. It is really interesting to see, and I hope that these next two photos give you a glimpse of the mountain behind the station.
These photos had to be taken in the back of the pick up....in fact, I could have used something higher to get a better photo.
