Slaven's Cabin, Historic roadhouse in Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve, Alaska
This two-story spruce log cabin, measuring 21 feet by 21 feet, stands 19 feet tall with a southern overhang extending 16 feet.
Frank Slaven established the cabin in 1932 as a stopover point along the Yukon River, supporting travelers and miners until the 1950s.
The cabin represents the lifestyle of early 20th-century Alaskan settlers who relied on river navigation for transportation and commerce.
The restored structure now functions as a public facility within the National Preserve, offering shelter to visitors exploring the Coal Creek Historic Mining District.
The roadhouse serves as an official checkpoint for the 1,000-mile Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race through the Alaskan wilderness.
