cabin, mining, 1909_construction
Old mining cabin built in 1909. It is the last building from the Avawatz Salt & Gypsum Company mining camp once located here. It was home to miners who worked in the company's mines and abandoned in the 1950s when mining activity ceased. Bob Calkins and Ward Walters found the decaying cabin in 1977 and spent years making improvements such as adding an outhouse and porch. Bob passed away in 2002 and Ward in 2003.
