The new 1,250-square-foot space includes a wood-burning fireplace, year-round restrooms, and even books and board games to make your day out in the snow extra special. A great spot to relax after your trek along the trails.
The hut will be open daily from 7:30am to 5pm, with the fire burning on weekends.
