Hiker's Hut

 

Hiker's Hut Information

The Hikers' Hut is a special place. It was constructed in 1977 and it is a modest cabin. There are no showers, and water must be used sparingly. It is very important that the Hut is left in good condition for the next group. If you find it otherwise, please clean it up and report it on the form provided at the Hut. Your group leader is responsible for making sure the rules of the Hut are followed. The deck of the Hut has a large picnic table and many of the guests find the deck a nice place to sleep in mild weather. There are also several well-marked hiking trails in the area.
