Elkins Garage Addition: Milestone 2
September 18th, 2025
We're excited to share the latest progress on the Elkins Garage!
The framing is advancing quickly. In the past couple of weeks, all the walls have been erected and framed, and the trusses have been lifted into place. The design for the front gable beams are also starting to come together. The site itself presented some challenges, requiring an expanded driveway and turnaround for better access to the garage and house. To address this, we've installed several new rock walls that define the driveway, enhance the landscaping, and retain the site's slope.
Project Description:
The Elkins garage addition is a detached two-car garage project located here in Star Valley Ranch, Wyoming. This seemingly straightforward design presents an interesting challenge due to the strict site setbacks and the existing structure.
