Peter French was the Cattle King south of Burns around the 1870's. He had the round barn built by his men to break horses in the winter time -- only to find that the horses had to be re-broken in the spring. It is constructed of huge Juniper logs, rock and cut lumber. Believe it is a national monument. There is no one there. Fenced off a gravel road, off paved Diamond Craters Road.
