The Hiker's Hut


The Problem

Overnight hiking is lots of fun... but there's so much to carry, and sleeping in the wilderness can be dangerous. 



The Inspiration

Around the world, huts of different shapes and sizes bridge the gap between the indoors and outdoors.

The lean-to by Alexa, age 9 features sleeping at one with nature. She is brave enough to face any risks of inclement weather or creatures on the prowl. The floor and walls are beautifully camouflaged.

The eating area is safely protected from wild animals inside the hut. A window allows the hungry hikers to look outside while they feast. 

The stone pathway leads to the outhouse. This allows a sleepy hiker to walk safely on solid surface so as not to step on creepy creatures or prickly plants in the night.
