Small green ship's wheel conceals the bathroom vent, bathroom is late addition, c. 1930 constructed from wooden planks of varying widths. Roof possibly reshingled at time of addition. False roof S.E. side was likely added at time of bathroom construction. Corners of log portion are dovetailed. Cabin faces S.W. two windows on N.W. side (85.0 x 65.0 & 85.0 x 70.). Bathroom window on south side (60 x 32.5 cm). Chinking between logs is oakum faced with concrete. Electrical conduit on back, N.W. side and gas conduit on N.E. side added in 1970s for John Morse when he used cabin as a woodworking shop. Both lines are connected to the Whyte house. Two chimneys, one encased in brick at N.E. end, the other in metal on N.W. side. Cabin/sits on concrete plinth probably dating from 1972. All base logs have been replaced by stonework c.1975.
