The cabin is hexagonal, with 16 foot diagonal, hand hewn 10 - 14 inch log, 3 courses horizontal, then 6 foot vertical, then 3 more horizontal courses. The builder didn't have a tractor, the limiting factor to the log size was what he could carry. There in one sliding emergency access window across from the door.  There is a half loft accessible by a ladder for sleeping or storage.

The door is framed in and all windows have exterior shutters fastened with wing nuts on to the bolts protruding from the frames. The door is lockable with a standard know lockset and a heavy padlock.

Electrical power is from solar panels and 4 each 200 lbs deep cycle batteries.  The wiring is all 12 volt, hence no converter. The only load is for the lighting, a radio and an old CB. There is no phone; there is a 1 kw filtered Honda generator for topping off the batteries at the cabin, plus a 3 kw generator at the shop for tools.

Cooking is done on a two burner propane fired grill mounted on one end of the kitchen counter. There are 3 each 20 lbs propane tanks in the cache.

The cache is shed roofed, the floor 8 feet off the ground, mounted on poles.

The view is to the North, over the river to Denali, Hunter, and Foraker.

The two story shop, shed, and apartment are 50 yards away, in the clearing where most of the cabins logs came from.  The apartment is over the shop, measuring 12 by 20. The shed is 12 by 16, metal siding and roof. The apartment is insulated, with paneling on the interior walls, and a frame bunk bed and sink in a counter top. The shop & shed are not insulated.

There is a spring about 100 yards down the trail past the cabin for water, with a large tub. It is just simpler to haul water for a weekend visit. There is a 5 gallon capacity Katadyn ceramic water filter system stored in the cache that could be used for treating the spring or the river water if the filters were replaced.

Everything currently on the premises would stay, so please see for yourself.

The cabin is well built, secluded, quiet, and comfortable with an awe inspiring view. There is hand built bench down the bluff for enjoying the view, as well as a wooden porch swing for those days when the mountain is out.
