Our Dream Fulfilled

We're a bit more than 10mi due east of Crater Lake (Mt Mazama)
Of which the reason of all the pumie
Tween Chemult and Chiloquin
On a few miles of logging road that dumps onto hwy 97
A fun run in winter

 

Gin poles are a must
I thought we'd just muscle things in place.....heh.....heh

Love yer open beam ceiling

I laid comp roofing on the A Frame (first cabin), then went to metal on the others
never looked back

 

We finished the backend of the A Frame with a 2nd bump out
Our kitchen

Before that
it was our 'camp kitchen'

Sorry about the blurry pics
new phone at the time

 

The A Frame kitchen was much needed
Less snow
Less ice chiping







We spent the first Christmas at the cabin with an actual indoor kitchen

 

I've always built with open beam
Why hide the glory?

I went with a 58° pitch on the A Frame
One reason
I'd never built in deep snow country and wanted the snow to readily slough off

 

Our dining table the first year

 

Hope I'm not being redundant, but these two pics should wrap up the first cabin build

 

On to the 2nd cabin, our main refuge
