I didn't realize there were ever cabins up there, but it makes sense they would have been removed for the proposed damn that never was to be. Next time I make it up that way, I'll have to look around and see if I can find the cabin footings. Ahh, it would be so grand to have a cabin relatively close like that to home, but seem like a million miles away from the city. Have a great Memorial Day holiday!

My folks had a cabin there in the 60s. Ours was across Shirttail Creek. There were about a dozen tucked around and between the bridge and the creek. All the cabin owners were forced to vacate for the Auburn Dam. I believe the Bureau of Reclamation burned them. What a wonderful swimming hole that was below the bridge! I posted some old photos on flickr under 'Yankee Jims.' Thank you for posting! BJ Lewis Enjoyed your photos! My folks had a cabin there in the 60s. Ours was across Shirttail Creek.
