Sam Hill House

Scanned and printed on paper, this is a color photograph of the Sam Hill House once built but not yet turned into the guest house it is today. Fall scene. The members had been stored on land higher than the building site. Teton Builders slid the members down the hilll on the ice and snow and managed to reassemble the entire house (now used as a garage and guest house) without the use of a crane. The house was up in 4 days. See 2004-357, 2004-358, 2004-359, 2004-360. In 1994, the upstairs portion of the house was restored by Teton Builders revealing all the old posts, beams, and rafters. It was necessary to insert additional sister rafters to hold the weight of the ceiling and roof.
Rebuilt by Norm Tebo and Joel Hinton , Teton Builders, using wooden pegs.
