Solitary Man's Hut

Reportedly constructed in the early 1980s by a Vietnam veteran. It must have taken some effort to lug the materials in - I can't imagine Parks lending him a chopper!!!

The hut is at Tiger Lake, not far from the Walls. If anyone knows more of the story behind the hut I would love to hear.
