My family bought property in CO about 50 years ago. It contained an old stage coach stop. No floor or roof. Four walls leaning every which way. We restored it and it looks a lot like the cabins in the pix. There’s actually about 10 other cabins just down the hill from us with a similar history and look.

Killing the rats that lived there was harder than the restoration. Log cabins are pretty simple.

The Rockies have their majesty, but the Smokies, their mystique... Lived in Knoxville and Sevierville, the foothills to the Smokies... try to get back there every year or so... the lives of the settlers there was hard, but I imagine was also filled with wonder at the beauty and “hiddenness” of their world.
