This is the original farm house on Frank Spencer's property. It was improved by August Hansen, and recently as of 2018, a complete renovation by Walter Hansen Jr.

The Cedar Creek Grist Mill was a very important place to the residents of the area. Everything from food goods to engine parts were manufactured onsite.
Walter Hansen Sr. remembers this to be the first place he ever saw electricity. The original electrical generator he witnessed is still on display at the North Clark Historical Museum.

Wilfred Craik, August Hansen, Ole Hansen, and several others set out to climb Mount Saint Helens in 1910. This was no easy task back then, without any kind of climbing gear or rescue, but it had to have been even more difficult to photograph. Wilfred captured some of the first known images of a climb on Mount St. Helens. This image is taken of the timber line.
