This hut is the former 'Maitland Hut' (see separate entry on this site) which was relocated & upgraded as a memorial to Russell Griebel & Bob Waldie, two DOC goat cullers who were killed when the former 'Bushline Hut' (see separate entry on this site) was washed away in a flash flood in February, 1995. 'Hunters Hut' was built on the ridge above the site of 'Bushline Hut' & it was completed in March, 1997, opening on 5 April, 1997, with a commemoration service held in front of 40 people to honour the two men.
