Title	Exterior view of the Adobe stage station in San Francisquito Canyon ca.1930
Description	Photograph of the exterior view of the Adobe stage station in San Francisquito Canyon ca.1930. The adobe was built by Marta Caravajales and Juan Celis. Later, it was used by Major Ben Gorman as a stop on a stage line he operated between Los Angeles and the Mojave and Willow Springs mines in the early 1870s. It was probably built around 1856-8. It escaped destruction by the 1927 San Francis Dam disaster, being above it. The single-story building is in a state of disrepair. Chicken wire fence encloses a small perimeter around the area to the left.
