Attention: Steiner Log Home Enthusiasts on Mt. Hood

 

A recent article in the Oregonian by Janet Eastman brings attention to a new book in process highlighting the stories of the Mt. Hood Steiner cabins scattered throughout the area during the depression era.

 

From the article,

 

Fans of the fabled Mount Hood log cabins hand built by the resourceful Steiner family take note: A coffee table book, expected to be released next year, will have photos and stories about the sturdy, artistic homes made with trees, stones and few store-bought items during the Great Depression and World War II.

 

 

A preview of the book titled “Steiner Cabins: History and Style of a Mt. Hood Icon” will be presented at a free Steiner Cabins Celebration Open House from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18, at The Mt. Hood Cultural Center & Museum in Government Camp.

 

A free open house is scheduled for October 18th from 1:00 to 3:30 at the Mt. Hood Cultural Center and Museum where guest filmmaker and speaker Ian McCluskey will discuss his own restoration of a Steiner and the stories and details of the future book. Local architectural photographer Chris Brown features photos in the book.
