Telluride Barn Raising: Timber Framing a Monitor Barn
The Monitor Barn is an icon of the American West. And to build one in Telluride, Colorado couldn’t be more fitting. We sent 3 of our crew to work with a local crew and raise the timber frame for this 44' x 54' Riverton Monitor Barn in just one week. Every timber connection is made and every oak peg is hammered in place as the timber frame rises before the backdrop of the majestic Rocky Mountains.
Rustic Monitor Barn
With a raised center section and two lean-tos, our Monitor Barn series has a distinctive profile and plenty of functionality. This Riverton Monitor Barn has a 20' x 48' main barn, flanked by two 12' x 48' enclosed lean-tos. Three overhead doors on the front allow for easy entrance for cars, trucks, and equipment. The large footprint is spacious for any purpose, and the second floor is especially sizable—ready to accommodate your barn needs. Let’s take a closer look.
