View of a two story log house in Georgetown, Colorado, with three men standing in front of the door; the center figure, with one leg and crutches, is Ben C. Catren, and the figure on the right, with a beard, is William N. Byers, the founder of the Rocky Mountain News and a Denver civic leader. The log cabin is a two-story gable-roofed structure with two shed additions. The building is a standard Rocky Mountain style of construction made with hewn logs with chinking between them. The mountain is visible in the background.
