Photograph of what Gilean Douglas called the Indian tree. It was a large cedar tree which grew close to a rock face on the trail between the house and garden at Channel Rock. The bottom facing the rock face was burnt out and formed a natural hearth, where a fire could be built; the rocks would reflect the heat and the cedar branches would give protection from the rain, thus creating a space for people to keep warm and dry.
