US Forest Service Boston Mountain Ranger Station

Google tells me when places are closed,…usually. I didn’t check the open hours and just drove 45 minutes to get a couple hiking maps. It’s closed…which…why,, but, at least the map board we paid to have installed should be stocked with maps, right? It’s not. Total fail and a waste of my resources. Absolutely no use to a traveler like myself. Up ur game.

Stopped here thinking that I would get helpful information from a ranger instead encountered a lady who didn't seem to want to be bothered by my presence just kept asking me is there anything else is there anything else like she couldn't wait for me to walk back out the door and did not give me one single shred of helpful information about the drive I was about to go on up to pig trail or any other helpful information about being in that section of the Ozark Forest!

I went in to the US Forestry Service building to enquire about places to go shooting in the National Forest. I was thinking that they would just tell me the take a drive and when I came to a clearing that had a safe backstop then that would be good enough. But they have areas setup for shooting. They even have tables and seats. Very nice. The people who work there were very helpful and friendly.

16 Jun- Closed due to COVID-19. I was trying to get a disabled veterans pass and not sure how to do it online if it's even possible. Building was nice on the outside and had local flowers growing in front. I love the nature look.

Closed for COVID-19 but love the outside natural plants!

Who is even taking care of this place anymore? Watched a law enforcer drive over trash, ride everyone's butt, and almost hit a wandering cow. Like wow....
