Description

Photograph of H. H. West's cabin at Furnace Creek Camp, as viewed at an angle, in Death Valley National Park. A dirt drive stretches across the foreground on a slightly upward angle from left to right. Beyond it, H. H. West's cabin stands at center and is viewed at an angle from the front and the side. It faces left. The cabin appears to be constructed of corrugated metal siding. A solitary window is inset along the right side of the cabin. Two sets of a door and window stand along the front of the cabin. The near door stands ajar. A placard affixed to the corner of the cabin, and beneath the roof's eave, reads, "309 to 312." Neighboring cabins stand back and to the left of the West's cabin and also behind and to the right of it.
