Caption: Paradise Inn Great Hall
Additional Description: from Paradise Inn Restaurant Menu: The beams and pillars surrounding you are the originals. They are highly prized Alaska yellow cedar, logged inside the park a few miles away from the site of an 1885 forest fire. No power equipment or diesel cranes were used, but rather logs were hand hoisted using ropes and pulleys. Notches and wooden pegs instead of nails held the pillars and beams in place. Likewise, the three massive rock fireplaces were lifted, laid and mortared by man power rather than machines.
