The Ambos homestead cabin and Ambos Reservoir. "In 1906 John Ambos filed on a reservoir site on what is now a part of the Black Mountain Ranch and a year later built this cabin to camp in while the dam was under construction. Built for temporary use at an elevation of 8,500 feet where four feet of snow is nothing unusual, the little 8' x 12' cabin" was still standing in 1977. --McCoy Memoirs p.240
