The Shack

[mjs1973]

If you're wondering why I'm posting photos of a cabin in the the woods, this isn't any ordinary cabin. This is Aldo Leopold's Shack. This is where the inspiration for his classic book, A Sand County Almanac came from. The Aldo Leopold Foundation is only about an hour and a half drive for me, but this is the first time I have made the trip. There was an event going on so the Shack was actually open for people to go in and look around. It is usually closed to visitors. I was hoping to get some photos of the inside but it was kind of smokey the first time I went in, and full of people the second time. The last photo is a view of the Wisconsin River from behind the Shack. This was shot with a camera converted to photograph in infra-red.
