Small cabin for a family of 10! Can't miss the cabin as it's right off the side of the road. Well worth the stop to read the description and think about how these people lived.

We were glad we stopped at this tiny, understated cabin. The historical marker indicated that a large family had lived and farmed here until their crops failed. Given the somewhat harsh and arid surroundings, it drove home the difficulties that early settlers faced in the West. Don't pass this one by if you are on Hwy 24; it's worth it to stop.

As others have said it is not the cabin itself that is amazing but thinking about the family that lived here. it is worth the stop just to appreciate what we have today especially for kids. the caves where the boys slept are literally ledges in a cliff side. think about the woman who had all those children and had to feed and care for a large family from a tiny cabin where most of her children were our sleeping in a wagon or on a ledge. The isolation alone is frightening in this day where we are so dependent on cars and modern medicine.

The willpower of the early settlers to this area of the state is apparent as you visit this homestead. To imagine that ten family members called this tiny structure home is amazing! Granted, only the parents and two youngest children slept in the house. The boys slept outside in the rock crevices while the girls slept in the wagon at night. Can you imagine?Unlike many of our other national parks, CRNP demonstrates how families lived in, farmed and were educated within the walls of these canyons until fairly recently. The Behunin's left not too long after arriving, but other families remained and prospered until roughly the 1940's. You see examples of their communities throughout the park.When in the eastern part of the park, make sure you stop and visit this structure to gain a better understanding of our country's westward expansion history. It's well worth it! My kids enjoyed climbing the rocks in the back - perhaps the very rocks that the boys referred to as their bedrooms!

Located on the eastern portion of Route 24 in Capitol Reef, this little cabin has a tale to tell of a family of 12 who lived here and tried to make a go of farming. Aside from being the only building in that part of a very narrow canyon, the canyon itself is worth admiring and taking a few photos of.

This is a place to let your children appreciate what they have. A whole family lived in this little cabin. The boys slept on ledges in the rocks in the summer. It is a very little cabin.

This small sandstone dirt floor cabin is not much to see but it does have an interesting story. It was the home for a family of ten for a short time before flash floods forced them out. However, only the parents and the two youngest children slept in the cabin; the other six slept in small pockets eroded in the canyon wall behind the cabin.

Get to know the history of it and imagine how life would like back then with the harsh environment. Pioneering in this area must be very challenging, hard enough for the Behunin to just stayed there for 1 year.

the tininess of it in this amazing park stimulates the imagination about what it could have been like to settle here in those days.

Die Behunin Cabin liegt direkt am Hwy 24 bei der Mile Post 88.Elijah Cutler Behunin brachte um 1880 als Treck-Führer Mormonen-Siedler auf der Suche nach fruchtbarem Land über die Capitol Gorge in das Gebiet um Fruita. Die enge Capitol Gorge war der einzige Zugang.Der Weg über die Waterpocket Fold war mit den Planwagen äußerst beschwerlich und gefährlich. Mit den Siedlern kamen noch Missionare, Abenteurer, Bergleute und auch Outlaws, die sich vor den Gesetzeshütern verstecken mussten.1882 lließ sich Behunin im Tal des Fremont Rivers nieder und baute ein einfaches Haus aus Sandstein mit nur einem einzigen Raum. Mit seiner Ehefrau hatte er insgesamt acht Kinder. Es ist sehr schwer vorstellbar, wie eine so große Familie in einem so kleinen Haus (Außenmaße 5 x 4 m!) leben konnte. Der einzige Raum war gleichzeitig Küche, Wohnzimmer und Schlafzimmer für das Ehepaar und die beiden kleinsten Kinder. Die Töchter schliefen in einem Planwagen, die Jungen übernachteten draußen.Die klimatischen Verhältnisse waren in diesem Gebiet zu extem. Einer langanhaltenden Dürre folgten Überschwemmungen. So ein Hochwasser vernichtete nicht nur die Ernte der Behunins, sondern auch die gesamten Felder. Die Familie zog bereits nach einem Jahr weg. Behunin war ein gläubiger Mormone, er spendete ein Grundstück für das Fruita-Schulhaus, das 1896 errichtet wurde. Seine Tochter Nellie war eine der ersten Lehrerinnen. In den 1960er-Jahren renovierte die Nationalpark-Verwaltung das Haus, es ist geschlossen, aber man kann einen Blick durch das Fenster ins Innere werfen.
