DescriptionFive guides stand in a row in front of a small log cabin in the woods. The cabin has a single step up to a narrow, platform porch. There is one door and one window on the front. There is another window on the side, and a metal chimney sticks out of the roof. The cabin is deeper than it is wide. A second cabin can be seen in the background, to the left of the first.
