Backwoods log cabins carry a certain charm, at least if they were well-constructed and maintained. Next weekend you can learn a little bit about the architectural history of cabins during a program at St. Croix National Scenic Riverway in Wisconsin.

The program, this coming Saturday at 10 a.m., will explore "Cabin Architecture, Yesterday and Today" and be led by Dale Mulfinger

The riverway, which runs through parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin, lies within the midst of cabin country with more than a century of interesting cabin creations. This talk will explore the past of some of those architectural designs, and where the designs might go in the years ahead. It will include examples of historic cabins from the St. Croix watershed.

Dale Mulfinger is the author of The Cabin: Inspiration for the Classic American Getaway and Cabinology: A Handbook to Your Private Hideaway. He has been designing and recording cabins for a quarter of a century in five books and more than 100 articles.

The presentation is free and open to the public. It will take place at the St. Croix River Association office, 230 South Washington Street, Unit 1, in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin (next to the St. Croix Falls Public Library).

Space is limited and reservations strongly encouraged. RSVPs will be honored until 10 am. To reserve a space, go to www.stcroixriverassociation.org or call (715) 483-3300.

 

Support National Parks Traveler

Your support for the National Parks Traveler comes at a time when news organizations are finding it hard, if not impossible, to stay in business. Traveler's work is vital. For nearly two decades we've provided essential coverage of national parks and protected areas. With the Trump administration’s determination to downsize the federal government, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum’s approach to public lands focused on energy exploration, it’s clear the Traveler will have much to cover in the months and years ahead. We know of no other news organization that provides such broad coverage of national parks and protected areas on a daily basis. Your support is greatly appreciated.
