Notes
  • Significance: The Frank Slaven Roadhouse was built in about 1930 to take advantage of traffic along the Yukon River, as well as up Coal Creek, where there was an active mining district in the 1930s. Like many miners in the area, Frank Slaven had staked claims on Coal Creek as early as 1905, and continued working them and prospecting for over thirty years. / ...The original log structure was built primarily by Sandy Johnson, a Finnish immigrant, who hewed the underside of each log to fit snugly on top of the one underneath. The frame section was added shortly after construction, probably reusing drop siding from Fr. Egbert. The purlins extend the full length of the structure. The corrugated metal roof was added in 1935.
