Hut Maintenance
Hut maintenance is an important responsibility of the club. This page is intended as a repository of ongoing and needed hut maintenance projects.
Brian Waddington Hut
Kersosene Heaters
The heaters are dysfunctional. A Coleman lamp was packed out Spring '04 and is sitting in the gear room waiting for somebody to repair it or discard it. As of August '04, the hut had two functional Coleman lamps and at one functional Coleman stove. There is a second stove at the hut in need of repair - it leaks gas.
Log Book
The Hut log book is totally full. There are only 2-3 pages left as of January 2nd, so it needs to be replaced ASAP.
Toilet Seat
Hinges are broken, and could use repair. Outhouse is still functional however.
Missing Pots & Pans
There were no pots in the hut on July 2nd/3rd, only dirty pans.
Harrison Hut Door, paint and steps
The Harrison Hut needs a new door, steps, and more paint. Roland Burton is presently coordinating repair efforts. The door is already flown in, but needs to be installed. We could make some steps out of stones, or not. The paint is up there, we need a nice day for painting. This should all be done while Frank is offering us helicopter rides into the Hut, as there may be no other way to get there now the bridge across Meager Creek is gone.
Brew Hut Outhouse Door
The outhouse door for the Brew Hut needs fixing. The door and hinges are ok, but the screw have pulled out and there is no screwdriver at the cabin. This is an easy fix, but may be unnecesary depening on how the brew hut replacement project comes along.
Hut Libraries
The club strives to keep libraries of the VOC Journal, and editions of the VOC Songbook in each hut. A list of vaccancies that need to be filled follows. Please add to these lists if you find any ommissions when you visit a hut, or remove them if you happen to find a particular journal at a hut.
