Mining activity in Bonanza Gulch dates back to the mid-nineteenth century, and the Bonanza trail snakes through this historic area. The cabin in the photograph below was built out of packing crates, during the 1950's, by a prospector who made his home here.
The packing crates are supposed to have come from a Sears store in Los Angeles; as you can see in this photograph, the cabin is "maintained" by volunteers under the area's "Adopt-A-Cabin" program.
