Timberline Lodge site sketches

These are from our field trip.  The lodge is an amazing feat, built in 16 months by the WPA in the 1930s...amazing use of big timbers and stones...great artwork and artisan craftsmanship...it is a massive monument to a NW architectural style known as Cascadia.  The lodge includes pioneer and Native American themes.  My personal favorite is all the iron work details.
