Mike, it would take quite a bit to bring these back although they probably lasted a very long time. Love the Hippie Inn!

Beautiful shots, Mike! Do you suppose they're old miners' cabins?
Thank you very much CathyAnn, most likely or trappers cabins.

Thank you very much Carol. The hippie inn was about 100 yards in the bush besides the Alcan highway.

Like you we saw similarly abandoned huts close to "castings of gravel". These huts were near Dawson City where gold was mined.

I know that area very well. I worked for the YCGC in the early fifties in the Klondike gold field. That's me in front of one.

Thank you very much, I think to keep the cold out they have very few windows.
