Hasn't voted | Marlon, 2nd highest structure in Canada and been there since 1922. The original mountaineers in this area were tough old bastards not to mention knew what they were doing I suppose. Most came in with the railroad and had a lot of engineering background. Most historic hut in the Canadian Rockies. Cheers. | | Posted Aug 14, 2007 6:47 pm |

Hasn't voted | Mark, helicopter brings stuff like that in when it hauls the shit barrels out. This hut has manned custodian quarters most of the summer. Gentleman up there when I went was 70rs+ and liked a good game of hearts which I and a few others obliged. All you need is your bag and food. Quite the historic quarters.
