No building is better evidence of this than the Diamond Window Cabin overlooking Stagecoach Reservoir on Routt County Road 14. In our office is a picture of the cabin taken in 1985. Although all its window sash and doors were gone, its ridgeline was ramrod straight. It stood tall against the hillside. But the wood shingles were weathered thin, their edges receding, and in many places they were missing altogether. Twenty years later, several of the rafters have rotted and failed, the ridgeline sags ominously, and the cabin is sinking into the hillside.
