Like the January History Mystery, the photograph below came from the John Hughes collection. In 1920, John Hughes was the trail crew supervisor for the Sierra National Forest.
It may be that this photograph is somewhere on today’s Road 200, but the structure, location and ownership has not been determined. Is it a hotel or a residence? Where is it located? Does it still exist?

…the History Mystery for February 2013!
In our next episode of The History Mystery, we’ll tell you what we learned about this photograph.
The January 2013 History Mystery #1, was the photo posted below. Here’s what we learned.
Four people sent us comments about the location of this scene and some information about the mystery photograph. Two members of the NFHG followed the leads that were given, but they were still unable to line up the horizon and confirm the correct location of the site. So we continue the hunt and ask for anyone who has information to contact the NFHG about the January History Mystery #1!
