About this location
Logging camp operated by the Marathon Corporation and later by American Can Corp. It was established in approx. 1948 and the the community was in existence until the late Seventies. The logging camp and town-site has been demolished and there is no indication that Stevens was a vibrant community of approx. 500 people in it's heyday.

Yes, one has to actually go to the location and then take pictures of the location to confirm its location to others and the pictures should be about the description or help explain the description.

Otherwise, I'd hate to see your very 1st post removed, but there needs to be more substance to the listing. Sorry, especially since that first pic is probably your family.

I would love to find more information on Stevens or some more old photos. I’ve tried searching archives but unless I’m looking in the wrong spot, I can’t find much.
