Notes
Built in 1981, with additional buildings added in 1994, this is the third 'Shelter Rock Hut'. The original was located on the same spot & was known to be in existence in 1931. It survived until destroyed in a storm in the 1950's. The second, a 4-bunker musterers hut was built by Rees Valley Station 1km downstream on the true right. It survived until replaced by this hut in 1981. Edit Hut

An interesting mix of old and new, with the new modern extension being build onto the old hut rather than a complete rebuild
