You wouldn't wanna carry me lol I guarantee but I can definitely show you where it is.
The cabin is actually between where Halverson road comes down off the rim and the lake itself. There are several old rock foundations and cabins along that stretch on the lake side of the river. Halverson is more like a series of puddles than a lake
but there used to be bluegill in there and bass.
The Halverson road used to be very rough and narrow, just a jeep trail and I have not been on it for 20 years or so. With the vehicle closure I am not sure how close one can get that way but even walking from the rim would be better than coming from Celebration park. That whole road is basically big rocks with dirt sprinkled between em, definitely was a 4x4 trail. Also since it's become the birds of prey wildlife refuge I am uncertain if one can MD there now, although its unlikely anyone else will be along most days.
As for history I have heard there were some folks homesteading there and probably raising sheep or similar critters. Basque, chinese, hawaiian, black, and caucasions from all the different stories I've been told, as well as Shoshoni. Would be interesting to see what turns up.
