PAROWAN — Students in Iron County recently finished designing and constructing a two-story mini home that will serve as a ranger station in Bryce Canyon National Park.
The project, officially called the ThunderWorks Housing Alliance, was a collaborative effort involving multiple entities, including Southern Utah University, Iron County School District, U.S. National Park Service and the Bryce Canyon Natural History Association.
"This partnership demonstrates the best of how to innovate and build together," said Stephen Lisonbee, assistant vice president of the Office of Regional Services at SUU and Gov. Spencer Cox's senior advisor of Rural Affairs.
"This collaboration has each partner playing a different role, which has been incredible to watch," Lisonbee added.
