A lovingly designed shelter that leaves nothing to be desired! Beautifully decorated (depending on the season), with a seat cushion for a warm hiker's bottom, a bottle opener, a Bible for those who like it, and a box containing a hiking guide (even working pens and reading glasses are included). Wow! Many thanks to the unknown, creative minds behind it.
