Here is Forest Village as it looked in the summer of 1971. You are facing the west, and can see the dining hall in the background. To your right is cabin 8 and in the middle, partly obscuring the dining hall behind it, is cabin 10. In the shadows between 8 and 10 is cabin 9. Behind you would be cabin 6 nearby and further behind you would be Totem, cabins 1 through 5. Today Hussey Lodge is roughly where cabin 8 is in this picture, and cabins 9 and 10 are still there but moved back a bit (not numbered and used for staff). Forest is now up the hill, where Outpost 11-15 used to be. Forest campers and staff reside in Hyde-Watson Lodge and cabin 8, which was given that old number but is really the original cabin 12.
