    Exactly what I hoped for. There were no visitors except my wife and I making it feel very similar to how it must have felt when Teddy Roosevelt was here.

I only wish that the Park Service would rebuild his cabin so that a visitor could sit on his front porch and enjoy the same view that he did.
