Old trapper cabin at Byers was winter family home for Suzzane (sp?) Sommers, Alaska Magazine editor when she was growing up. Family fished commercially in summer, wintered at Byers. Don Sheldon flew them in and out, before road.


Sommers is a friend of my wife's good friend Diane. Diane says Sommers goes back every year and takes pictures of the cabin as it deteriorates.
