if you have any additional photos during cabin construction - I would love to see as many early pics as possible.
Hello
ColoradoCabin,
Yes Terry spoke about you several times. Thoreau's Cabin was indeed a very challenging remote "off the grid" project for him, but he loved that kind of challenge. Around that same time Terry also built another similar remote "off the grid" cabin near-by that was a victim of arson by an environmentalist-whack-job. He knew who did it, but could never prove it, however the guy died in a climbing accident in Alaska 5 years after burning down my brother's cabin. Needless to say we didn't shed any tears when he heard he fell down a 1000 foot ice crevasse.
The new cabins in Wills Point, Texas are not identical but are very close in design, just a tad larger, but not much.(32x28 & 28x20)
Terry and I both being bachelors and trying to make the most of very limited space did not put bath-tubs in the Texas cabins either.
Wow...you must be in great shape to snow-shoe at 11,000 feet....I hardly could breathe up there....lol.
My nephew Kevin in California who was involved in the construction of Thoreau Cabin sent me these pictures this morning after you asked:
