    Great place to sit and take a rest...Or to hide from the weather if it turns :)...its way bigger than it looks in photos.

      Quirky cross shaped shelter with stone seats. Not a shelter really but a wind break if you sit on the opposite side the wind is blowing.

        A great place to stop and have a sandwich to celebrate reaching the summit.
