A historic Talkeetna cabin has been placed back on its foundation after structural restoration work. Grants from the Alaska Association of Historic Preservation and Talkeetna Community Council revenue sharing funded the restoration of the Ole Dahl Cabin near the Talkeetna Historical Society Museum. KTNA’s Katie Writer spoke with Scott Holcomb, who did a substantial portion of the structural work, about the project.

Talkeetna Historical Society Executive Director Sue Deyoe, says more work remains to be done on the historic cabin, which will require additional funding.
