The
first bunkhouse, then used as a storage shed (1998)
- photo contributed by Sharon Bryant. The bunkhouse was moved down to the ranch
from the Westphal's in approximately in 1910 - 1912. It was the first
trading post in the Cora Valley. Very small, they
only had the basic supplies. The Alexanders moved it down to the ranch
for a bunkhouse. The Haub's moved the building to their ranch 3 years
ago (2001). They have restored it, and made a sauna house out of it.
