The walls are formed of rough spruce sticks, called studs, of about six inches in diameter, the height of the sides six feet, and of the gables about ten or twelve feet. The studs are placed perpendicularly, wedged close together, and the chinks or interstices filled with moss.The floor is made with round studs like the walls, which are sometimes hewed a little with an adze.
