WMS Map: The Log Homes of Albany County

About The Log Homes of Albany County ....

I thought the world needed a map of the Log Homes of Albany County. So I made one up. Some of these are probably a bit fancier then just a log cabin in the woods. Notice how in more built up areas, log homes are uncommon -- it's a style more popular in rural areas.

Helpful Hint: While I suggest you look on blog for a downloadable PDF Map, you should be able to print or save this map by clicking the print button on the map above.
