About Hut Registration
If you know you will be at a VOC Hut at a given time please post here to let people know. Note that this is not a reservation and does not grant you exclusive use, or even priority over others who may not have posted, but it's "the right thing to do." Registering here will help prevent multiple large groups from arriving at the hut at the same time. The rule for VOC huts is that there is always room for one more (this works both ways). When registering, please leave some sort of contact info on the page. If you don't want to expose your real email address, just sign with a link to your user:talk page using ~~~~ or ~~~.
Also note that there is no priority based on order of registration. Feel free to register yourself anyway even if the hut is already listed as "full", just be prepared to deal with the situation if it turns out to be crowded. Not all parties who register to use a hut actually end up going, so there is some leeway for "overbooking".
We suggest non-VOC members give a donation of $5 per person per night, you could send it to us or put it in the blue lock box inside the hut (Note: the Burton Hut in Sphinx Bay does not have a donation box, as it is within Garibaldi Park).
Brew Hut Registration
The Brew Hut sleeps 12 in relative comfort, but has been known to sleep up to 16 people without putting anyone on the floor - 13 upstairs and 3 downstairs on the sleeping bench.
Date: group of X, contact information
- This is not a reservation, but a WARNING. We painted the floor on Sunday 07 September, and the paint, though fine to walk on, is likely to smell bad for a couple of weeks. The party up there on Sept 14 said that the smell wasn't too bad. You might have to sleep with the windows open for the next two weekends. Close them as usual when you leave the Hut.
Brian Waddington Hut Registration
The Brian Waddington Hut can handle about 24 people in the loft upstairs.
Date: group of X, contact information
October 18-19 Phelix Creek Trail Workhike 5 will likely fill the hut with volunteers putting finishing touches on the trail.--Bigbadbasstrombone 08:18, 2 September 2008 (PDT)
Burton Hut Registration
The Burton Hut sleeps 10 comfortably and 15 is cozy. Make sure the lake is frozen before you try to cross it. Typically it is frozen by February.
Date: group of X, contact information
August 16-17 a large VOC party will be staying at the hut as they hike around the lake.
Harrison Hut Registration
The Harrison Hut can handle about 15 people. In winter the road from Pemberton to Meager will likely not be driveable, making the (winter) access impossibly long. Bridge across Meager is now good.
Date: group of X, contact information

Aug.30 - Sept.1, 2008, VOC Mountaineering Camp 2008 will be based at the hut. Around 20 people are expected --Bigbadbasstrombone 13:14, 15 August 2008 (PDT)
