Notes
  • Significance: James Taylor, a miner who had been in the country since the early days of the twentieth century, settled on the right bank of the Yukon when he had ceased mining and turned to trapping in the mid 1920s. Although the main cabin no longer stands, the remaining cabins show the careful construction and ingenuity for which Taylor was known. The shed, clearly added to, was used for storage, and the shop served as his first residence on the site and later as his blacksmith shop. The dog barn, divided into different stalls by vertical poles, and the dog corrals, which gave the dogs access to water, were unusual.
