In October of 2009, GNH Lumber assisted the Catskill 3500 Club in their efforts to help rebuild a Hunter Mountain lean-to – which had been lost four years ago to a fire set by careless hikers. Over 20 volunteers aided in its reconstruction, and the finished structure was complete with cedar shingles and painted with a proective weatherizer. Others helped build a new fire pit near the lean-to and gather up fire wood. The rebuilding was a huge success, and the John Robb lean-to will be able to provide shelter to hikers for many years to come.
