(January 26, 2021, 6:42 pm)Hiked through here in July 1981 with Camp Cheif Hector (YMCA) on our way to Mt. Assiniboine. At that time it was a Parks Canda Ranger Station only. So they could clear and improve the surounding trails. Funny there used to be a horse corral near it as well as a wall of empty beer bottles (where the wood is now stacked) from the Rangers off hours. By the way on our trip to Mt. Assinaboine we asked the Rangers about the trail. All they would say is that it was there. We soon got lost and ended up having to bush wack our way to the Porcupine Camp site. Will never forget having to take a dump in an outhouse that a bear had distroyed the door off of due to somone throughing left over food down in it. Good times for all.

(July 14, 2018, 4:05 pm)A typical shelter, has 6 bunks and can accommodate 12 people (2 per bunk). There is a shared dining area with a stove and lots of firewood, great place to dry your gear.
I've visited both in the winter and in the summer.
If you haven't booked the entire hut, expect rowdy bunk mates. People like to drink and party.
Could use some updating or repainting, lots of smoke residue on the ceiling and walls.
