Glacier. Placement on the stem wall will require a crane. The mover shall supply any required transportation, equipment (including crane services), safety gear, and personnel needed to complete the move and final placement of the cabin.

5:12. Peak to base height is 14-feet. The eaves extend 18-inches from the finish sides of the cabin making the overall width of the cabin 21’-5”.
