The Emerson Parks House in Ten Sleep, Wyoming is a historic two-story log house built in 1929. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.[1]

It was home of Emerson Parks (1887-1965) and his wife Ina Miller Parks.[2]

The house was built using the "butt and pass" method of log construction, a kind of false notching, utilizing D-shaped milled logs presumably from the local Bighorn Mountains.[2]
