    Nice progress on the cabin.

    In MN we do about 20" on center on the roof rafters. Yours look small than that but I'm assuming that is due to the snow load. I was going to ask if you do any cross bracing on the roof rafters or does your heavy roof sheathing provide for that?

    You should probably get a click-thru commission from the Alaskan Mill people on this. Your photos and explanations have been fantastic. Each cabin description is better than the previous. Does your trapping permit allow for a third cabin?
