When a frontier homesteader spent his summer carefully stacking stones around the base of his pier-and-beam cabin like he was building a "rock fence for his house," neighbors couldn't understand why anyone would waste time making their home look like it was sitting in a stone bathtub. What they didn't realize was that his cabin's exposed crawlspace was letting brutal winter winds blast directly under his floorboards, turning his living space into an icebox no amount of firewood could warm. By enclosing that crawlspace with his dry-stacked stone wall, he trapped the earth's constant 55°F geothermal heat beneath his floor instead of letting -20°F prairie winds freeze his feet through the floorboards. While his neighbors' elevated cabins became unbearable ice rinks that numbed their toes even near a roaring fire, his stone-skirted home stayed a comfortable 35°F warmer from the ground up. Discover how one settler's "decorative" stonework became the most effective foundation heating system on the entire frontier.
