Hut Rules

Check-In and Check-Out Policies

• Check-in: 7:00 AM

Hut Rules:

The Kees and Claire Hut is a bunk-style sleeping arrangement, divided into 6 sleeping areas. The space provides ample storage for gear in the dormitory hallway and bunks are assigned. We ask that our guests be courteous to one another and ensure their equipment does not impose on others sleeping space.

*Pro Tip - earplugs are nice to have handy

Visitors must:

  • Carry their booking confirmation with them to show to custodians at the hut and BC Parks rangers on the trail.

  • Check-in with custodians when they’ve arrived at the hut to be assigned their bunk.

  • Bring their own washcloths and tea towels for use in the kitchen.

  • Clean and sanitize high-touch surfaces regularly throughout their stay. Cleaning supplies are provided.

  • Remove all personal items, all food, and all garbage when leaving the hut. - “Pack it in, pack it out”

*All guides must carry a physical copy of their commercial recreation park use permit (PUP).

KIDS – Are they allowed at the hut?

It is strongly recommended that guests do not bring children that cannot walk to and from the hut under their own power. Toddlers and small children are not recommended as the hut is not designed as “child proof”. Further, the space is tight for 38 guests and parents are expected to control their children at all times as it is a very busy kitchen with hot water, sharp implements and knives, busy stairwells, etc that offers many potential hazards to small children.

QUIET – Is there a quiet time or can people play music in the hut?

Quiet time is between 10pm and 8am each day. People must be respectful of other guests and ensure that their movements, conversations and other activities reflect this. All guests are asked to minimize their noise generally, talk quietly and not play music or create any other noise that is not acceptable to ALL guests. If you have an early departure, alpine start, you are expected to be as quiet as possible in assembling your equipment and gear, etc. to leave on your day. After 10pm, guests should keep their noise to a minimum. 

CLEANING – Who cleans the hut?

You do. You are responsible for taking out ALL of the materials, food stuffs, garbage, whatever, that you brought with you. NO EXCEPTIONS. Your every piece of plastic, garbage, uneaten food, etc MUST BE TAKEN OUT BY YOU and not left behind for others to deal with. The hut should always be left in better condition than you found it. Clean up after yourself. Clean your own dishes, replace them and the utensils etc back to where they were taken from. It is only thru the efforts of the guests that this facility will be properly cared for. PACK IT IN…PACK IT OUT. 

NO RESERVATION – What happens if someone shows up without a reservation? 

Without a reservation you cannot stay at the hut. You can make a reservation online if space is available.

EMERGENCY – Call 911

In the case of an emergency, call 911 and advise the operator of the situation and follow the instructions of the operator. There is good cell service adjacent to the hut or in the hut for most carriers. IF a Custodian is present in the hut, please advise them as to the situation and follow their instructions.
