These are rare examples of a once-common frontier construction method. Vertical logs form the walls of these buildings. The 1878 commanding officer’s Quarters and the duplex 1882 officers’ quarters (figure 4) are the only frame houses left on “Officers’ Row.” The 1892 Guard House was the only brick building erected by the US Army at Fort Supply. It has been restored and furnished to 1893 and contains an exhibit area. A replica of the original 1868 stockade provides visitors with a glimpse of frontier army life.
