Without any plumbing, electricity, or neighbors, this cabin was Josie Morris home for over fifty years. She built the modest structure with a fire place, a chicken coop and cattle fence on her own and lived in the remoteness of the canyon between 1913 and 1964, when she died from the complications of a broken hip. Take a hike into nearby Box Canyon and Hog Canyon, where Josie planted trees and penned her livestock.
