Abstract

The focus of this study is the Martin Powers Barn, located near Cave Junction, Oregon. The goal of this paper was to determine and verify dates of construction and modification of the barn, to construct a new long-term reference chronology for the Cave Junction area, to evaluate the validity of using Douglas fir for dendrochronology and to identify the criteria for the tree-ring dating of historic structures within the Pacific Northwest.
