H.A. Smith Cabin—Circa 1918. Located near the old stock yards between Railroad Avenue and First Street, this cabin originally housed a fur trading business. H.A, Smith bought and sold hides of all kinds, especially sheep hides for the textile companies back east. During World War II he began a metal salvage business to help in the war effort. This salvage business led to the present day HASCO Industrial Supply Company located in Riverton, Wyoming. HASCO stands for H.A. Smith Company and is owned by his son and daughter-in-law.
Restoration is nearing completion and will exhibit articles that might be found in a Furtrapper's Trading Post, in keeping with the original purpose for which it was built. This cabin will be open to visitors in May 2012.
