Document Description
Repair portions of the dilapidated historic Orestimba Corral and install exhibit shelter at Henry W. Coe State Park to preserve, protect, and interpret the facility. The Corral was built in the 1950s and consists of a livestock loading chute, alley way, holding pen, and squeeze pen. Work will replace original rotted, broken and missing posts, rails, and gates using treated wood from downed juniper, oak, and grey pine trees burned in the park during wildfires in 2007. Wood used to repair the corral will match the wood post size and original milling technique and will be treated on site with a copper-based preservative. Install new wood corral components into existing post holes and attach 5 new metal tube gates using steel bolts and nuts on corral fences. Install new 7' tall by 2' wide sheltered exhibit set in concrete footings in holes measuring approximately 2' wide by 32" deep adjacent to the corral.
