The CCC Company 749 Powder Magazine is a small stone and concrete structure originally constructed to store either powder or blasting caps for use by the Civilian Conservation Corps working in the Ouachita National Forest. The square building measures six feet on each side. It is five feet high with a four-inch thick concrete top and a concrete floor. The cut-stone and concrete walls vary from six to eleven inches in thickness. There is a small door in the southeast fagade of the structure, which sits on a north slope about 200 yards down the slope from the top of a small, round-topped ridge. The structure is in good condition. - NRHP, 6 June 2005
