Yes, open bat between the rafters and then enclosed with 1" x 6" rough cut lumber. Its was my dream home away from the life in Anchorage. The upper floor was our sleeping loft. Built the summer of '76 and it still stands and is in use now as an addition to a permanent home. Sold to a good friend when we left AK in 1982.

Life at the cabin was the good times.

You family looks snug as a bug in a rug. What kind of timber logs were they?

That is a Spruce is a soft wood, easy to cut green.
Easy to cut, not so easy to haul.

Great experience for a young impressionable kid seeing self-reliance and what can be done...

Also make a great back story for a politician... I started out in a log cabin... etc.
