Cabin-Building
Workshop
Many trappers
depend on cabins for shelter during the trapping season. Construction
of cabins in remote locations can present a major challenge. Simple
methods and materials are a distinct advantage. Construction
experience is an even bigger advantage. One of our members developed a
method requiring two people and a minimum of tools. ATA organized a
workshop to allow interested individuals to participate in the
construction of a cabin, based on this simple method. A 12 ft. X 18
ft. cabin was completed in two days. ATA plans to offer a
cabin-building workshop every 3 to 5 years.
