Found um!

 On a drivel home from out west last summer I spotted these cabins along Hwy 70 near Booneville.
We were passed them before we had chance to get off the Hwy and were to tired to go back.

Made a road trip yesterday to find them.

They are located an on old Steam Engine museum.
Neat little one room cabins.
Nice roofs and cable end enclosers.

 Both have dovetail notches.

 The bad part about both are the sill logs are right on the ground.

While in okay shape now, water and snow will eventually require repairs to the sill logs.

It would not have taken much to have raised them up when being rebuilt.


 12 to 14 inch face on this log.
Parting shoot.

Some cabins from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon

 At one time there were about 150 cabins on the North Rim. Many built around 1928-1936. Not sure how many there are now, but here are some of them.
