The restored Wohlgehagen cabin, while titled the "stage stop" by Diamond S ranch residents, was very likely not the actual stage stop on Bellyache. Rather, this is Anna Wohlgehagen's homestead cabin that has been re-built and re-located. According to Jack Oleson, the real stage stop was likely located at the head of Squaw Creek and was not salvageable.

"Several observers comment that Jill Schlegel, the only woman working in the pens, is just as adept at handling the animals as most of the men. She grew up in Burns Hole (her maiden name is Wurtsmith), and ranching has always been a part of her life."
