Donomore Cabin

Donomore Cabin The Donomore Cabin was built in 1935 as a line cabin for ranchers running cattle in the mountains during the summer.

It sits on the Pacific Crest Trail in California near the Oregon border. Cattlemen built the line cabin to help manage their cattle on the range from the Applegate River and the Klamath River. The cabin sits on the Pacific Crest Trail where it has suffered from neglect and abuse. The Offenbacher Family and friends hope to stabilize and refurbish the cabin to honor its place in history. Settlers Do

nomore (was it "Dono Mareau"?) and Silvee were killed by Indians during the Humbug War of 1855, so they say. Settlers continued to hunt, mine, run cattle, and live in the area. The Page is a place to post pictures and events related to the Cabin.

Reminder that 11 July is the week-end Curt and his buddies will be reinforcing the north (back) wall of the cabin that suffers from moisture and soil build-up. Bring your skills or just show up to experience the meadow and the cabin.

Saturday 11 July 2026

is the annual gathering at Donomore Cabin to enjoy the fruits of past summers' labors and repair or clean up anything that needs attention. There apparently has been little snow. We look forward to seeing you! Watch for a status update.

Is Dono Moro associated with the meadow? The name is still a mystery and the stories without confirmation.

See you in July!
