Just had a quick look. Looks interesting. I may investigate some of the more local ones in the summer.

Heard about them a little while back, but totally forgot they existed. I've never seen one in a city haha. Now that I'm living more rurally, I'll check them out some time.

there used to be a lot of secrecy behind the locations of these places and the information was only passed on by word of mouth, but with www it didnt take long for the info to be out.
theres still a few that kept secret.

They're a similar idea to the Alpine huts littered throughout, erm, the Alps. The only snag is, you have to have a Plan B if you reach one and find it's already occupied.
