The little story

Summit Bothy

Summit Bothy is a steep A-frame refuge tucked between snowy peaks, with trail gear waiting outside the door. Its roof reaches almost to the sky, which is the point: you climb all the way up, then finally get to sit down.

Bram the bothy bird keeps the guestbook by the door. Every summit entry, from the first brave hikers to the people who only came for the snacks, ends with the same word: worth it.

Look around the lodge for a compass, a lantern and a stack of well-worn books. Then take the trail back down, knowing exactly where the good view is waiting for next time.

    The tallest snowcap

    Snow has settled on this peak like icing. It is the first thing you notice when you look up from the trail.

  2. Which little tool points the way?Show me Found
    The trail compass

    A compass rests beside the lodge, pointing toward somewhere you have not been yet.

  3. Something glows on the right, waiting for dusk.Show me Found
    The bothy lantern

    A lantern hangs ready for anyone still on the trail after dark. Bram says it is the closest thing to a welcome mat up here.

  4. Which evergreen stands guard on the left?Show me Found
    The lone pine

    One pine stands at the trail edge. It has seen every summit and still thinks yours is the best one.

    The glowing window
