Ice House Canyon Lodge ruins butterfly ring
Available and it’s a size 4.5 handmade ring with a piece of a porcelain ruins from the fire. One of one, one of a kind, thick, yet little petite ring. GS stamped on the inside. Sterling silver and fine silver bezel. To ensure the design wouldn’t crack or fade I put a layer of epoxy resin to protect and bring it back to life with some shine and protection.
I was hiking where I get most of my creative motivation and found some cool pieces of china on the ground. I had the inspiration to preserve and share the history to make it into something that will last forever. It was built in 1916 and burned down in 1988. Did you know an ice house was actually built and that’s where they got the name?
MORE HISTORY: The nearest known native American settlements were at Indian Hill in Claremont (Gabrielino) and in Lytle Creek Canyon (Serrano) . Indians probably camped in or near IC. The Chapman family deserve a chapter of their own in the history of IC. Clarence Chapman built the Icehouse Canyon resort, cabins 15, 16, 17, 20 (with Henry Delker) and 28 and the fireplace at Cabin 21. (Cabin 16 was destroyed by the Forest Service in the early 1970′s. ) Bob Chapman started working with his father at the age of 7. The Chapman’s operated the resort from 1922 to 1928, adding on to the main building and more cabins.
The same year the IC Resort was built, 1921, two other resorts — Bear Canyon and Eleven Oaks — joined Camp Baldy in the village area. All four resorts apparently did a brisk business during that decade. In addition there were the trail camps: Kelly’s Kamp, Fern Camp in the vicinity of Cabin 26, and Trail Inn (Cabin 44). The last had a horse corral where hikers could rent horses to ride up to Kelly’s. There was a toboggan run nearby.
The Icehouse Canyon Improvement Association framed its first constitution in 1922. By 1938 there were 105 privately owned cabins in IC.
As early as 1859, Victor Beaudry and and Damien Marchessault built an ice house there. 🧊🏠 The ice was brought down from the mountains to Los Angeles by mule and sold door to door as well as being used at Beaudry and Marchessault’s ice cream saloon.🍦
