About This Hut
Rainy Day Lake Hut perches dramatically atop Hailstone Bluff, overlooking the beautiful lake it's named after. This semi-enclosed shelter offers stunning lake views and features two picnic areas and swimming docks for enjoying the water. The hut is accessible via a 15-minute walk from a 4×4 road, making it more accessible than many other SCT huts. The elevated bluff location provides excellent vistas and a sense of openness.
