Description

This photo shows the back side of a log trapper's cache standing in foreground at the edge of a gravel road. The cache is a cabin-like structure approximately eight feet wide set atop four vertical posts approximately 12" high. This summer view shows a large cottonwood tree at far right standing above a heavy alder and cottonwood forest in middle ground at right. The light-colored road enters the image at lower left and is visible through the legs of the cache and beyond as it curves out of sight to the right in middle ground. A high brush field lies on the far side of the road with tall mixed forest beyond in background. The shoulder of a mountain is faintly visible at far left in background.
