Dartmouth's Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, built in 1938, is scheduled to be dismantled after First Year Trips in Sept 2016. The replacement lodge will be built in the next 11 months and the new building should be open for First Year Trips in Sept 2017.
MRL has lived an amazing life, well beyond its expected span. Repairs at this point are becoming constant and extensive, and the structure doesn't meet the needs of the Dartmouth community with respect to accessibility, safety, functionality, sustainability, and energy use. The new building will not be exactly like the flythrough video below, but it gives a good feel of what the final product will look like.
Sad to see the old girl go, but excited about the new Lodge.
