Jefferson Dredge Barn | Keeping the Barn

The Jefferson Dredge barn was constructed with materials from a large dredge used to do the heavy work during the construction of the Fort Peck Dam in Montana. After the dam was completed the machinery was auctioned off. Karl Reddig bought the dredge and repurposed it to build his barn north of Frazer, MT.
