Q. Where can I find information about the Burn cabins located by Fairhaven College and the Outback?

The cabins were built by June and Farrar Burn, whose archival collection is now housed at the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies. See the guide linked below and/or contact CPNWS (Tel: 360 650 7747) for more information about this collection.

Contact Western Washington University Archives & Records Management (Tel:360 650 3124) for more information on records documenting Western’s ownership and management of the cabins and the Outback Farm property. Both University Archives and CPNWS are programs of Western Libraries Archives & Special Collections division (see link below).

Property records (Deeds) for the cabin site and other Bellingham/Whatcom County locations can be accessed through the Washington State Archives (NW Regional Branch).
