Cabin #1 or what is now known as 'Bear Paw Cabin' was the first cabin built at the resort in 1968. The original owners actually lived in this cabin while the main lodge/house was being built in 1969.
The original inside had wood paneling typical of the early 70's era. During our cabin remodels we use pine tongue & groove wood throughout the entire cabin - walls/ceiling and new pine 6 panel doors. To keep it light and bright inside the cabin, we use a natural stain with a gloss on the wood as one of the final steps in the cabin remodel.
Here is one of our remodelers. He is 'helping' dad out and saving his money for a new Star Wars lego set.
During this phase, we hired an electrician to change out the 'fuse box' to a 'circuit breaker box' just like in the other cabin remodels. 
All the paneling and ceiling tiles come down and then Jim changes out all the electrical receptacles and switches (the original ones are black/brown) to 'almond' to go with the new lighter wood that will be used throughout the cabin. We will keep you posted on the progress. It's 25 degrees and snowing today.
Jim and Gavin did go trout fishing on Saturday and caught this nice one which we had for dinner last night.
