Didn't realize they used to have food service at that warming hut.
I think some sort of food service/warming hut at the top of Gate House would be better, however. Nothing fancy - a hut the same size as Glen House would fit nicely up there in the plateau area, and for a name, how 'bout "North Lynx Lodge", or as someone else said... "Shady Jay's" . I believe during the ASC era there was some sort of food service there - it first appears on the 97-98 trailmap (see http://sugarbushhistory.com/1997-1998.jpg from sugarbushhistory.com). There is a small shack there today called "Java The Hut" ... was it coffee only?
All this makes me wonder why the Heaven's Gate warming hut was taken off the trail map... even though its still there and open to the public.
